+# Getting started with generating DLBs for HAWC2
+
+Note that DLB stands for Design Load Basis. It refers to a set of cases that are
+used to evaluate the fitness of a certain design. An example of a DLB definition
+is the IEC 61400-1ed3.
+
+
+## Overview
+
+This document intends to provide an extremely brief overview of how to run a set
+of HAWC2 simulations using the Gorm cluster at DTU and the Mimer storage.
+This document is a work in progress, and is by no means exhaustive.
+
+
+## Resources
+
+The majority of this information can be found in the Wind Energy Toolbox
+documentation. In particular, [generate-spreadsheet](docs/generate-spreadsheet.md)
+discusses how to use a "master" Excel spreadsheet to generate the subordinate
+Excel spreadsheets that will later be used to create the necessary HTC files.
+[howto-make-dlcs](docs/howto-make-dlcs.md) discusses how to create htc files
+from the subordinate spreadsheets, submit those HTC files to the cluster,
+and post-process results.
+[houserules-mimerhawc2sim](docs/houserules-mimerhawc2sim.md) has some
+"house rules" on storing simulations on mimer.
+[docs/using-statistics-df.md](using-statistics-df) has some information
+on loading the post-processing statistics using Python.
+
+
+## Steps
+
+##### 1. Make sure that you can access the cluster/mimer according to the instructions in [wetb](README.md)
+
+##### 2. Create a Set ID folder for this project/simulation (detailed house rules [houserules-mimerhawc2sim](docs/houserules-mimerhawc2sim.md))
+a. Navigate to or create the folder corresponding to your model on
+```\\mimer.risoe.dk\hawc2sim```. You should create a new turbine model folder
+only when the turbulence box size changes (e.g., if the rotor size changes) or
+if you have a completely new model. You now have two options:
+
+    i. Create a new Set ID alpha code (e.g., "AA", "AB", etc.) You should
+    only do this if no one else in your project has run simulations on mimer.
+
+    ii. Use a pre-existing Set ID alpha code. This is preferable, but be
+    sure to contact whoever created/used the alpha code most recently to
+    verify it is okay to use.
+
+b. Create a new Set ID folder. If you have a new Set ID alpha code (e.g.,
+"AB"), then it should be that code followed by "0000". If you are using a
+pre-existing Set ID alpha code, then just add 1 to the most recent number
+(e.g., if "AB0008" exists, your new folder is "AB0009").
+
+##### 3. Add proper log files for your Set ID folder. (See [using-statistics-df](docs/using-statistics-df.md))
+
+##### 4. Add your model files.
+Within your new Set ID folder, add your HAWC2 model files. Keep a folder
+structure similar to this:
+
+```
+|-- animation
+|-- control
+|-- data
+|-- externalforce
+|-- htc
+|-- iter
+|-- logfiles
+|-- pbs_in
+|-- pbs_out
+|-- res
+|-- res_eigen
+|-- turb
+AA0001_ErrorLog.csv
+DTU10MW_AA0001.zip
+pbs_in_file_cache.txt
+```
+
+Your ```htc```, ```pbs_in```, and ```pbs_out``` folders will be empty at this time.
+
+##### 5. Structure your Set ID/htc folder like this:
+```
+|-- _master
+DLCs.xlsx
+```
+
+Place your master HTC file in the _master folder (NOTE that it must have
+"_master_" in its name or later scripts won’t find it). ```DLCs.xlsx``` is
+your master Excel file that will create the subordinate Excel files in the coming
+steps.
+
+##### 6. Create your subordinate Excel files.
+From a terminal, change to your htc directory. Then run the following code:
+
+```
+$ export PATH=/home/python/miniconda3/bin:$PATH
+$ source activate wetb_py3
+$ python /home/MET/repositories/toolbox/WindEnergyToolbox/wetb/prepost/GenerateDLCs.py --folder=DLCs
+$ source deactivate
+```
+
+This will create a subfolders DLCs and fill that new subfolder with the created
+subordinate Excel files.
+
+##### 7. Move your DLCs.xlsx file from the htc folder to the _master folder.
+It will cause errors in later scripts if left in the htc folder.
+
+##### 8. Create your htc files and corresponding PBS job scripts from the subordinate Excel files.
+In the terminal, change up a level to your Set ID folder (e.g., to folder
+"AB0001"). Then run this code
+
+```
+$ qsub-wrap.py -f /home/MET/repositories/toolbox/WindEnergyToolbox/wetb/prepost/dlctemplate.py --prep
+```
+
+Your htc files should now be placed in subfolders in the htc folder, and PBS
+job files should be in folder ```pbs_in```.
+
+##### 9. Launch the htc files to the cluster.
+For example, the following code will launch the jobs in folder pbs_in on 100
+nodes. You must be in the top-level Set ID folder for this to work (e.g., in
+folder "AB0001").
+
+```
+$ launch.py -n 100 -p pbs_in/
+```
+
+use the ```launchy.py``` help function to get more options:
+
+```
+$ launch.py --help
+```
+
+More information on launching options and cluster configurations/status/etc.
+can be found on the [wetb README](README.md).
+
+##### 10. Post-process results.
+More detail in [docs/using-statistics-df.md](using-statistics-df). Here is
+example code to check the log files, calculate the statistics, the AEP and the
+lifetime equivalent loads: (Execute from top-level Set ID folder)
+
+```
+$ qsub-wrap.py -f /home/MET/repositories/toolbox/WindEnergyToolbox/wetb/prepost/dlctemplate.py --years=25 --neq=1e7 --stats --check_logs --fatigue
+```
