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!If the simulation was stopped (job was killed) or crashed it can often get re-submitted by executing again the command:
