Complementary information about DAVAI setup on belenos HPC machine @ MF

Quick install

module use ~mary/public/modulefiles
module load davai/x.y.z

To know what version (x.y.z) of davai tests to use, cf. https://github.com/ACCORD-NWP/DAVAI-tests/wiki/Versions-of-tests

You can put the first line in your .bash_profile, and execute the second only when needed.

Pre-requirements (if not already set up)

1. Load modules (conveniently in your .bash_profile):

   module load python/3.7.6
   module load git

2. Configure your ~/.netrc file for FTP communications with archive machine hendrix, if not already done:

   machine hendrix login <your_user> password <your_password>
   machine hendrix.meteo.fr login <your_user> password <your_password>

   (! don't forget to chmod 600 ~/.netrc if you are creating this file !)
   To be updated when you change your password
3. Configure ftserv (information is stored encrypted in ~/.ftuas):
   ftmotpasse -h hendrix -u <your_user>
   (and give your actual password)
   AND
   ftmotpasse -h hendrix.meteo.fr -u <your_user>
   (same)
   To be updated when you change your password
4. Configure Git proxy certificate info :
   git config --global http.sslVerify false
5. Ensure SSH connectivity between compute and transfer nodes, if not already done:
   cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

And maybe

with a version of tests prior to DV48T1_op0.04-1, you may also need epygram:

• ~mary/public/EPyGrAM/stable/_install/setup_epygram.py -v
• then to avoid a matplotlib/display issue, set:
  backend : Agg in ~/.config/matplotlib/matplotlibrc
