-I’m working on OpenQuke alpha testing service and although I have run
the Smoketest file but unfortunately I can’t see the result on output
folder, could anyone please tell me what’s wrong here? Or could anyone
please give me a useful documentation.

-I wonder how can I modify the config.gem file to add my own data to
be used in the calculation, or change the bounding box of the
calculation area.

thank you in advance

Hi Mehdi,
- Can you please specify which smoketest are you running? Notice that you
need to add "--output_type=xml" to the command to make sure the results
are exported.

- Once you have your data stored according to the NRML schema, you can
just change the associated file path in the config file. The files
regarding the GMPE and source model logic tree are in the beginning of the
config file. The "source model" file is specified inside of the "source
model logic tree" file. The path to the exposure and vulnerability model
files are defined at the very end of the config file.

- The bounding box can be simply changed by modifying the coordinates of
the bounding box in the beginning of the config file ("REGION_VERTEX").

- A document describing the calculators from a scientific point of view is
being currently compiled and will be release to the community very soon.

Mehdi, for questions that might more related with the science rather than
the IT structure of OpenQuake I recommend you to use the
openqua...@googlegroups.com mailing list.

Thank you for your feedback,
Vitor

-I changed this code in accordance with my case but it doesn't work,
please help me what is wrong here?

cd /usr/openquake/sadeghi/
mkdir mahdi
cp -a <some-path>/demos_1_9_11/classical_psha_simple mahdi


-and many times i tried to use demo files but i couldn't find it in my
directory!

so i couldn't get any success to run OATS yet.
Is there any useful guideline to run it or any simple examples?
thank you.

thank you for your comment

I try to run OATS but the command doesn't work may i ask you what
wrong with this:

cd /usr/openquake/sadeghi/
mkdir mahdi
cp -a <some-path>/demos_1_9_11/classical_psha_simple mahdi

and would you send me some useful document or simple example to run
OATS and how to get output from OATS?

THANK YOU

Mehdi, hi.
Sorry to hear you are having difficulties with using OATS. Have you joined
the OATS user mailing list? I suggest you sign up as other users can help
you with these types of questions.

Are you following the instructions on the following webpage:
http://openquake.org/oats-user-guide/ ?

I would recommend you try the following command (once you are connected to
OATS):

openquake
--config_file=sadeghi/demos_12_10_11/classical_psha_based_risk/config.gem
--output_type=xml

And then you can try all the other demos that are in the "demos_12_10_11"
folder, just by replacing the name of the demo in the path above.

By the end of this week we should publish a User Manual on the OpenQuake
website, which will include detailed instructions, tutorials, examples etc.
which should make things easier.

Good luck,
Helen
