This is a duplicate of something else
suite.rc
& global.rc
with cylc-flow.rc
#3260
Depends on cylc-admin issue.
Before to #2199 (redefining how Cylc submits jobs to compute resources/clusters) we should consider the design of the .rc settings files.
The most logical way to support installation of suites on suite clusters and
job hosts is to migrate our host-based configuration logic to a cluster-based
configuration logic. Some points to consider:
global.rc
[hosts]
section in favour of a[job platforms]
section. The new section should allow us to configure:
suite.rc
relevant settings under[runtime][__MANY__]
, but havea top level
[job platforms]
section that simply mirrors that ofglobal.rc
to allow individual suites to override the site/user settings.So, for example, a suite
flow.rc
might look like this:Ideally the
suite.rc
and theglobal.rc
should be replaced by a single configuration, probably calledcylc-flow.rc
. It is envisaged that some of it's settings are more likely to be set in a global context, and some in a suite context, but the same settings should be available in both cases.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
