I’d just finished building environment for running OpenIFS, and it was a huge struggle. If it is possible, I want my procedure note public.
Could you please confirm this setup is compliant with the OpenIFS licence, and clarify whether sharing minimal build config files is acceptable?
Many thanks!
I’ve set up a GH Actions → GHCR → Apptainer workflow for OpenIFS 48r1 on CSD3 (my institution’s HPC system).
Can I make public only:
– the CI workflow YAML, Dockerfile for a toolchain-only image (GNU/OpenMPI/NetCDF/HDF5, no OpenIFS code),
– a README with build/run instructions, and
– generic arch files/Slurm templates that contain no ECMWF code.
I will not publish any OpenIFS sources/binaries or a container image that includes them. Users would bind-mount their locally licensed sources at build.
Thanks again,
Yuiko
