1.4 Config Subdirectories
The location of the CHPS Configuration directory may vary depending on the RFC, but the subdirectories are standard among all River Forecast Centers.
The configuration directory contains subdirectories with logical names.
Commonly Used Subdirectories
Some of the subdirectories you will become familiar with in your role as a configuration focal point include:
 |
RegionConfigFiles form the basis for this RFC-specific configuration, including all locations, parameters, etc. |
 |
WorkflowFiles contain definitions of workflows for running sequences of modules. |
 |
ModuleConfigFiles contain configurations of all modules used to handle data and run forecast models (ModuleParameters and ModuleDataSetFiles may also be helpful). |
 |
SystemConfigFiles include definitions of the functional elements DELFT-FEWS has available (plug-ins). The layout of the time series display in the main GUI is also defined in these files. |

Root Configuration Files
Root configuration files define Operator Client (OC) and/or Forecasting Shell Server (FSS) behavior. The files may be unique to each OC or FSS.
Warning! DO NOT edit root configuration files without consulting the Hydrologic Services Branch!
