- C384C192L127 cycled & C384 forecast-only on WCOSS2, Hera, and Orion
- C192C96L127 cycled & C192 forecast-only on WCOSS2, Hera, and Orion
Note: No high res (C768C384L127) support on R&Ds Hera/Orion in this version.
Supported verification packages:

- METplus EMC_verif-global.v2.10.0
Setup steps:
- Quick clone and build instructions
git clone -b gfs.v16.3.7 https://github.com/NOAA-EMC/global-workflow.git
cd global-workflow/sorc
sh checkout.sh
sh build_all.sh
sh link_fv3gfs.sh emc [wcoss2][hera][orion]

- Run experiment setup scripts
See the following global-workflow wiki page: https://github.com/NOAA-EMC/global-workflow/wiki/Run-setup-scripts-to-generate-experiment/c85d5c2f87b298b6f0536a2fc2fb425a092c70fc
Note: the above wiki links are to older revisions of the global-workflow GitHub wiki (before updates were made for GFSv17/develop). Use wcoss2 for the machine where needed (e.g. link_fv3gfs.sh script) and ignore references to now unsupported machines (e.g. WCOSS-Dell and WCOSS-Cray).
