#1946: sim setup should create a section for the current machine
Reporter: Roland Haas
Status: open
Milestone:
Version: development version
Type: enhancement
Priority: minor
Component: SimFactory
Comment (by Roland Haas):
@{557058:1671c5c3-29cc-4e83-9850-a152d33a6235} also came across this issue of `sourcebasedir` not being set when running `sim setup-silent` on known machines and in a directory different from what simfactory has in its machine database \(private communication\).
This ticket may serve as a catchall to collect discussion and possible patches.
The issue does not occur in the “official” workflow \(see SF paper: [https://arxiv.org/pdf/1008.4571](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1008.4571) page 4, “A. Managing Source Code“\), which would avoid ever running `sim setup` on the cluster \(and never run `GetComponents` there either\).

Nice. Thank you. I can see this is going to be a continuous struggle with versions of Python / numpy / whatnot. Hiding Python 3.8 in the GNU modules is a mean trick by TACC.

Comment (by Gabriele Bozzola):
I managed to add compatibility for Python 3.7 with no inconvenience for users.
The next version of NumPy will drop support for Python 3.8 as well \(but it will be required for Python 3.12\), so I don’t know for how long I can hold on supporting 3.7 while also supporting newer versions.

NPScalars\_SF does no harm. It compiled out of the box and didn’t cause any tests that passed before to fail.

#1805: triggers statement does not include reductions output
Reporter: Wolfgang Kastaun
Status: new
Milestone:
Version: ET_2014_05
Type: bug
Priority: minor
Component: Other
Comment (by Roland Haas):
I note that computing variables whose reductions are being computed \(for output or otherwise\) only every once in a while and not at every timestep is very firmly in the “[give you rope to hang yourself with, and then some more](https://motd.ambians.com/quotes.php/name/linux_computers/toc_id/1-1-4… territory. Technically should be supported though \(and I thought there are the required `CCTJ_TriggerFoo` calls in `CarpetIOScalar`\).
The only way to get away with it somewhat safely is to compute \(and output\) only every coarse step \(if not computing every single step of course\). Everything else stands a danger of using stale / invalid data on past timelevels if and when interpolation in time happens. This also implies \(well mostly\) that the computed quantity must be computable in a pointwise manner, not involving any stencil operations \(to avoid having to restrict and prolongate\) to avoid different results obtained when computing every step and output every coarse or computing and outputting every coarse.

#2705: error: more than one instance of overloaded function "isnan" matches the argument list

Comment (by Miguel Zilhão):
I see. On Marenostrum, I can indeed fix this by pointing to a suitable g\+\+ version. On our local cluster, however, they only provide updated intel compiles and the gcc available is version 4. Is there anyway around this, or do I really need to ask the sysadmins to provide updated gcc compilers as well?
