Hi all,
after longish pause I am back to trying to get cylc8 to work on archer2. Thanks, for sorting out the issue of the cylc-run directory. The next problem I have is that I can’t put the global.cylc configuration file somewhere cylc can find it. I don’t have a home directory on archer2 (the original problem) and I don’t have write access to /etc. I have installed cylc8 into a prefix. I was hoping that cylc would look for the global config file inside $PREFIX/etc/flow/…
Cheers

Hi Magnus
Perhaps the environment variable, $CYLC_SITE_CONF_PATH can help you here?
Cylc will look for your global.cylc file if this is set, see Global Configuration — Cylc 8.0b3 documentation.
Best wishes
Mel

Cylc jobs should not need access to the global.cylc to send messages back to the Scheduler (the required information is written into the contact file) so you should not require a global.cylc file on job nodes (unless your jobs are themselves running Cylc commands or something more complex is going on).
What’s the issue you are hitting?
ok, so I was anticipating a problem that might not exist. Thanks for clarification.
