Issues with Controlling the frequency of output with RAMP_SLCF #12896

Closed rakyuv closed 4 months ago

rakyuv commented 5 months ago

Describe the bug I am having problems in controlling the frequency of output. I tried this feature with a small test file (), where I save SLCF files at discrete time intervals and it works correctly as expected. When I try the same with a file with multiple MPI_PROCESSES, I see that the time resolution is always 6, which is equally divided between 0 and T_END.

To Reproduce This is my current input file testfds.txt

Expected behavior I expected it to save SLCF only at 40 s and 250 s. However it saves at 0, 120, 240, 360, 480, 600 s

Desktop (please complete the following information):

I'll take a look.

You are using a 3D slice, in which case you should be using RAMP_SL3D, not RAMP_SLCF.

Thanks @mcgratta. It works as expected.
