since that disabling is handling within the nanorc start command.

Can you say just a few more words about this? Does nanorc's start command take options now? What is the syntax? I'm just asking because this change takes out the part of the confgen that inserts the data storage enable/disable into the start command parameters, and I don't know the replacement functionality.

Yes, sorry, nanorc start has the following usage

Usage: start [OPTIONS] RUN

  Starts the run

  RUN: run number

Options:
  --disable-data-storage / --enable-data-storage
                                  Toggle data storage

I found this when a ran a test in which I told the confgen script to disable data storage and then discovered that the value for this in the JSON file was ignored when I ran the system with those JSON files.

nanorc mdapp_3proc boot init conf start --disable-data-storage 111 wait 2 resume wait 30 pause wait 2 stop scrap terminate
