Hawk Steve,

inside the Cactus directory you should have a file called simfactory/etc/defs.local.ini. There you should have something like this:

[default]
user = xxxx
email = xxx
allocation =
sourcebasedir = xxxxx
basedir = zzzzz

basedir is where the output is written (i.e., replace zzzzz with the directory where you want the simulation output to be written). Otherwise you can always append the option --basedir=zzzzz when executing simfactory (the full options for simfactory are printed out by just typing ./simfactory/bin/sim within the Cactus directory).

Cheers,

Bruno

Hello:
As a newer to Einstein Toolkit, I have successfully finished and executed the example file in the server following the link: https://github.com/nds-org/jupyter-et/blob/master/CactusTutorial.ipynb. But I have a question about deciding the simulation output directory，how can l give the self-defined output directory for storing the simulation results. Is there any files contents or commands inside ET that could define the output directory by myself, or any documentations clarifying how the Einstein Toolkit decide the IO directory?

Maybe it is a simple question, but I really don’t want to mess the common folders up too much, since I need to work out some simulations about NR in the group’s server.

Thanks a lot !

Best regards,

Hawk Steve
