Abstract:

MITRAILLETTE is a software designed to do some basic validations on ARPEGE, ALADIN, AROME, and versions used by ALADIN or HIRLAM partners. It is shared between METEO-FRANCE, ALADIN partners and HIRLAM partners. It is currently not used by ECMWF.

The current design of MITRAILLETTE allows to use it on different machines with minimal adaptations concentrated in a reduced number of environnement files.

This document explains how to use MITRAILLETTE, and provides information how to modify a configuration or how to introduce a new configuration.

The current release (v122018) is valid for CY46T1.

Description stands for machine BEAUFIX2.
