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!
'chunk_job.log' contains entries like the following:
| Volet |
|---|

Each completed month has at least 4 entries:
| Volet |
|---|
..._S starting ......_S finished ......_M starting ......_M finished ... |
To restart a month make sure the last line either contains:
| Volet |
|---|
... previous_month_M finished ... |
