You should also familiarise yourself with Rose & Cylc, and more information on these can be found here:

Also, if you do not have a PUMA or ARCHER account, you can use the Met Office provided Virtual Machine to run the VM. You should follow the instructions here (you will need the Ubuntu 15.10 image with 3GB of RAM)
https://github.com/metomi/metomi-vms
before following the instructions here to get the UM working.

It will soon be possible to run a simple UKCA suite in the VM, but this requires at least 6GB of RAM to run successfully.
UKCA Training Suite
To set-up using the UM with Rose & Cylc correctly, go to
and follow the instructions from Section 2.2 onwards if you are using Linux/Mac (after opening a terminal).
Note: when entering MOSRS password, a rose window will open behind everything all your other windows. You will also need to enter your username here to complete the process.
When you have completed this, you should launch the Rose browser by typing
rosie go &
and there you should search for suite u-ai071
and make a copy of it.
