Common Autosubmit commands

Command	Description	Autosubmit documentation
expid	Add a new experiment to the database and create the corresponding directory.	documentation
create	Read the configuration and create the workflow for the experiment.	documentation
run	Run the workflow. Usually this is called in the background.	documentation
monitor	Use this to get the current status of the workflow. Works both when the workflow is running (i.e. an autosubmit run runs in the background) and when not.	documentation
setstatus	Set the status of one or multiple jobs. This is useful e.g. if a job failed, you fixed the problem and now you want to start from there again. Some examples are below	documentation
inspect	Create all the scripts for the configured jobs and places them in the tmp directory. You can use this, if you are not sure that e.g. all parameter replacements worked.	documentation
refresh	Update the project repository. CAUTION: it clones the auto-icon repository from scratch. Local changes to the configuration will be lost! You might want to consider doing a git pull within the cloned repository instead.	documentation
recovery	If something went horribly wrong and your workflow is in an ill-defined state, use this to recover your experiment.	documentation

Setting job status

You can set the status of arbitrary jobs in your workflow to an arbitrary value (e.g. WAITING, READY or COMPLETED) by using the autosubmit setstatus command. A few examples shall illustrate common use cases:

Set all failed jobs in your workflow to WAITING (e.g. to re-run the jobs):

autosubmit setstatus <expid> -fs FAILED -t WAITING -s -np

Set all RUN_ICON jobs in your workflow to WAITING (e.g. to re-run the jobs):

autosubmit setstatus <expid> -ft RUN_ICON -t WAITING -s -np

Set the BUILD_ICON and BUILD_PYTHON jobs in your workflow to COMPLETED (e.g. because they were running successfully already but you had to run autosubmit create again):

autosubmit setstatus <expid> -ft "BUILD_ICON BUILD_PYTHON" -t COMPLETED -s -np

Suspend job t001_2004010100_default_1_RUN_ICON of expid t001 to delay execution:

autosubmit setstatus t001 -fl t001_2004010100_default_1_RUN_ICON -t SUSPENDED -s -np
