chunk_job.log

As you hopefully know, each simulated month consists of two scripts:

• a very short                             Script-job : ${GEM_exp}_S
• followed by one or more Model-jobs : ${GEM_exp}_M

To know where the simulation is, Chunk_lance is using a log file called 'chunk_job.log'. The chunk_job itself will check this file to determine which job to execute next. Therefore, this log file should usually not be touched. However, to rerun part of a simulation one can alter the log file by hand. Just make sure there is never a blank line at the end of the log file 'chunk_job.log' since the chunk_job only checks the very last line of the log file!

To restart a month make sure the last line either contains:
