create_newcase scripts generates the following error

[seshakalyur]

I am following the instructions in the Quick Start page. create_newcase scripts generates the following error:

./create_newcase --case cmip6-picontrol --compset A_WCYCL1850S_CMIP6 --res ne30_oECv3_ICG --mach cori-knl --user-mods-dir ../config/e3sm/testmods_dirs/allactive/v1cmip6/

Hi @seshakalyur -- my name is Jon Wolfe and I'm part of the E3SM Infrastructure team.

What machine are you trying to run on? You have specified cori-knl in create_newcase, but that platform is no longer online

Hi Sesha,

Unfortunately, getting E3SM running on an unsupported machine is not possible in a single command line. We recommend users try to get time on one of our supported platforms, because the process otherwise can be daunting. I can point you to our project website where it has some instructions about running the model:
Running E3SM
as well as the documentation for CIME (our case control system) which also has some instructions for defining a new machine:
Defining the Machine
But in general it is a difficult process to take on.

Jon
