| 26 | | Only by the specification of {{{write_binary=true}}} the model is instructed to compute the remaining CPU time after each time step and stop, if the run is not going to be completed and finished briefly before expiration of this time. Actually the stop takes place when the difference from the available job time (determined by the '''palmrun''' option {{{-t}}}) and the time used so far by the job becomes smaller than the time given by the model variable [../d3par#termination_time_needed termination_time_needed]. The variable '''termination_time_needed''' can be used to determine, how much time is needed for copying the binary data for restart runs, as well as for transfer of result data etc. (as long as this is part of the job). Thus, as soon as the remaining job time is less than '''termination_time_needed''', the model stops the time step procedure and writes the data for a restart run to the local binary file/directory [../iofiles#BINOUT BINOUT]. The so-called [../inipar initialization parameters] are also written to this file. In a last step the model produces another file with the local name [[CONTINUE_RUN]]. The presence of this file signals '''palmrun''' that a restart run must be started and initiates the start of an appropriate job.\\\\ |

In this case the model must read in the binary data written by the preceding run at the beginning of the run. Beyond that it also reads the initialization parameters from this file. Therefore these do not need to be indicated in the parameter file (local name [../iofiles#PARIN PARIN]). If they are indicated nevertheless and if their value deviates from their value of the initial run, then this is ignored. There is exactly one exception to this rule: the initialization parameter [../inipar#initializing_actions initializing_actions] determines whether the job is a restart run or an initial run. If '''initializing_actions''' = '' 'read_restart_data','' then it is a restart run, otherwise an initial run. The previous remarks make it clear that the model obviously needs two different parameter files (local name PARIN) for the case of job chains. One is needed for the initial run and contains all initialization parameters set by the user and the other one is needed for restart runs. The last one only contains the initialization parameter '''initializing_actions''' (also, initialization parameters with values different from the initial run may appear in this file, but they will be ignored), which must have the value '' 'read_restart_data'.'' Therefore the user must produce two different parameter files if he wants to operate job chains. Since the model always expects the parameter file on the local file PARIN, two different file connection statements must be given for this file in the configuration file. One may be active only for the initial run, the other one only for restart runs. The '''palmrun''' call for the initial run shown above activates the first of the two specified connection statements, because the character string {{{d3#}}} with the option {{{-r}}} coincides with the character string in the third column of the connection statement.
