Exporting to PHASTA

After the partitioning performed via Chef in the last steps, we have the problem domain in a form that the PHASTA executable can read. Make a directory named "Run". This will contain all of the simulation data from this case. Remember that for this onRamp tutorial we have partitioned our case of interest to 8 parts. Therefore we will also create a subdirectory named "8-procs-case". In this subdirectory make softlinks to the N=8 restart and geombc and restart "checkpoint" files that where constructed. When in this subdirectory a good command to do this is the following :

ln -s ../../Chef/8-1-Chef/8-procs-case/restart* .
ln -s ../../Chef/8-1-Chef/8-procs_case/geombc* .

Also create a numstart.dat file. This file will specify the time and timestep that the simulation has completed to. Use the following command in the "Run/8-procs_case" directory :

echo 0 0>numstart.dat
