UFS Medium-Range Weather (MRW) Practical Session Guide | Session 1: Set Up and Run the Model > 3. Create a case

A case is an instance of a MRW model simulation. It is determined by: 

• component set 
• model grid 
• machine 
• compiler 
• any other additional customizations 

Invoke create_newcase as follows from the cime/scripts directory using the following format:

This will 

• Create a case directory named /glade/scratch/$USER/UFS_training/ufs-mrweather-app workflow.c96 
• Use the GFSv15p2 CCPP physics suite, C96 grid and the UFS weather model with pre and post-processing steps 

The output can be seen here.  When the case directory is created, the build is done.
