Unable to configure SPLITS with SPLITSIZE>1

[ainagaya]

Hi @kinow , @dbeltrankyl

I'm using autosubmit/4.1.12-dev-e326af7. I'm trying to use SPLITSIZE to configure a number of daily splits different than 1. My experiment metadata is correct, but I keep getting 31 splits.

I copied the experiment that I was using to a25m: https://climatedt-wf.csc.fi/experiment/a25m/config

But I keep getting 1-day splits:

I also tried with SPLITSIZEUNIT: Month and SPLITSIZE: 1 and I was getting 3 splits.

It might be that there is a multiplication factor somewhere in the code, or that I'm not configuring it correctly.

Thanks!

Hello @ainagaya

Can you try to put it at job level?

JOBS:
  JOB:
    SPLITSIZE: <whatever>

Hi Dani,

That worked!! Thanks!

So, I can configure chunk/split sizes at JOB level? I didn't know this!!

Hello,

Yes, as the split is somewhat like a wildcard, we allowed it.

It should work as a general setting... but I looked at the code for the other issue, and the get is not there ( neither it is commented) I'll check the splits issue to see if it was intended because I don't recall it right now

Okay great! This flexibility is indeed very useful. Thanks Dani!

Ok great, I was configuring it after EXPERIMENT because is what I found in the documentation (https://autosubmit.readthedocs.io/en/master/userguide/defining_workflows/index.html#job-splits-with-calendar).
