2. Initialisation

The second step is to set a directory dedicated to a sloop experiment. To do so, run the sloop init command in a terminal, it will:

Create a experiment directory {WORK_DIR}/{xpid}/{vapp}/{vconf}.

Create a link of the sloop and vortex libraries.

Create a a jobs/ directory.

Import config to conf/{vapp}_{vconf}.ini from sloop/templates/conf/{vapp}.ini.

Import the vortex tasks in the tasks/ directory from sloop/templates/tasks.
