labrerun

Purpose:

rerun an experiment using information recorded in a .log file

Usage:

labrerun [<option> ...] <log file>

Options:

-b, --batch

run in background

-c, --comment=<TAG>

will be stored in the .log files (see 'labrun --help-comment' for details)

-e, --env=<ENV>

record the value of environment variable <ENV> (will be restored, when using labrerun)

-h, --help

print a help message

-i, --ignore=<ENV>

ignore the value of environment variable <ENV> recorded in the log file; use the current setting instead

-l, --log=<DIR>

where to put log files (default: location of <log file>)

-n, --name=<TAG>

name to use instead of program name in file names

-t, --tag=<TAG>

use <TAG> instead date-time stamp in file names

--keep

keep old files that were checked out to rerun the experiment

--nocvs

do not revert to CVS version recorded in log file; use current version instead

--nolabrc

do not read ~/.labrc and ./labrc

-1, --one

just produce one .log file with different sections

-p, --print

print the labrun command that would be created but don't execute it

-v, --verbose

verbose mode

--version

print version information

-x, --exec=<DIR>

where to execute program (default comes from log file)

With @FILE or @ FILE (some) command-line options are read from FILE (see section ).

Result:

The same as for labrun.

Examples:

• labrerun lab_log/current.log

  Reruns the last experiment

• labrerun --nocvs lab_log/current.log

  Reruns the last experiment using the current version of the code

• labrerun -e LD_LIBRARY_PATH -l ../log -n new -t 20_5 lab_log/current.log

  Reruns the last experiment (lab_log/current.log) recording the value of the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the new log file. The log file is stored in the directory ../log and has the name new-20_5.log.

• labrerun -i LD_LIBRARY_PATH ../log/new-20_5_10.log

  Reruns the previous experiment, using the current value of LD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of the one recorded in the log file.
