diskpy.pychanga.mox.sbatch_script(workdir=None, param=’snapshot.param’, nodes=1, ppn=None, walltime=48, jobname=’sbatch_job’, email=None, changa_preset=’default’, partition=’vsm’, savepath=None, changa_args=”, runner_args=”, **kwargs)

A not very robust function to generate SBATCH submission scripts for ChaNGa jobs on hyak. Some of the requirements include:

SBATCH (it’s on mox akak hyak2, don’t worry)

By default, any directory with ‘lastcheckpoint’ in it will be restarted! If you don’t want to just restart a simulation, delete lastcheckpoint from the simulation directory!

Parameters:

workdir : str

(optional) Directory of the simulation. Default is current working directory

param : str

Filename of the .param file (not full path)

nodes : int

Number of computation nodes to request

ppn : int

(optional) Number of cores per node

walltime : float or int

Walltime to request in hours

jobname : str

Name of the job

email : str

Email address for PBS to send updates to

changa_preset : str

ChaNGa preset to use (see diskpy.global_settings and diskpy.pychanga.changa_command)

partition : str

mox partition (e.g. per group) to submit job to.

savepath : str

(optional) If supplied, save this script as an executable to this path.

changa_args, runner_args : str

Optional extra command line arguments to pass to changa and the runner (i.e. charmrun, mpirun…)

**kwargs

flag pairs. CAREFUL: these must not conflict with other flags. Flag,val

pairs (ie -flag val) are passed as: flag=val. To add an extra command

line parameter to sbatch, e.g. -flag val

Returns:

PBS_script : str

A string for the PBS script. Can be saved easily to file
