Arbitrary Case Name #148

Open AaronDonahue opened 5 years ago

AaronDonahue commented 5 years ago

In the run.cfg file, the simulation name matches the case name in the output files, e.g.

    [[syrah.scream.PR_71_SubgridCloud.ne30_ne30]]
        transfer_type = local
        local_path = path_to_files
        short_name = P3-PR71-SubgridClouds
        native_grid_name = ne30
        native_mpas_grid_name = oEC60to30v3
        data_types = all
        job_types = all
        comparisons = all

In this entry processflow will go to "path_to_files" and look for cam.h0 files that start with "syrah.scream.PR_71_SubgridCloud.ne30_ne30"

I recently did a set of comparisons where the file names were the same for two cases, so I had to manually change the output filenames so that one set was different. Would it be possible to assign an arbitrary case name for the main "simulations" entry that is used when assigning comparison lists, and a separate field that gives the file name prefix's on the same level as "short_name", "native_grid_name", etc.?
