- Rose-bush browser checking suite log files is working on accessdev
- Ian is looking at following issues:
- Issue with large job output files not automatically coming back to accessdev; need to document and inform users of required workarounds if required (Ref.
AD#19) - Enabling Rose-Cylc with csh login shell (
AD#77) - Enabling Rose-Cylc without needing to put module load's into login scripts (
AD#34)- OK for Rose, doesn't seem to be way to do this for Cylc; Ian to report to Cylc developers
