#2198: simfactory's user level run command does not record jobid in a segment's properties.ini file ---------------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: Roland Haas | Type: defect Status: new | Priority: minor Milestone: | Component: SimFactory Version: development version | Keywords: ---------------------------------+------------------------ The (user level) run command does not record a jobid in a segment's properties.ini file which means one cannot eg restart from a checkpoint since simfactory complains about an unset jobid:
{code} simfactory/bin/sim create-run test1 --parfile par/tov_ETK_2018_lisbon.par --procs 1 --walltime 0:5:0 grep jobid ~/simulations/test1/output-0000/SIMFACTORY/properties.ini {code} shows the issue (but not producing any output). And the error obtained when trying to restart is along the lines of
Simulation name: binarybh9 Error: job id is negative Aborting Simfactory
This was reported by Qingwen Wang in http://lists.einsteintoolkit.org/pipermail/users/2018-September/006524.html
A workaround is to not use run as a user but always submit or to use the cleanup command after which simfactory is fine with there not being a job id.
