Use of SAVE & RELOAD

I have a large A/View model that always starts out with the same "short" dynamic event, and then gets sent to several other subsequent events. Looking at the SAVE & RELOAD commands, it seems I should be able to do something like the following two major tasks...
 
  • Configure the model as needed
  • Make my short run via an initial.acf in batch.
  • Issue "SAVE/SYSTEM, FILE=initial.sav" at the end of the initial.acf
 
This file is now sitting on my hard drive, then...
 
  • Create a desired_run.acf file
  • The first line should be "RELOAD/SYSTEM, FILE=initial.sav, OUTPUT_PREFIX=Test_out"
  • Solve in batch
  • Etc. with other desired runs
 
When I try this, I get the following error in the .msg file...
 
 command: ! Insert ACF commands here:
 command: 
 command: RELOAD/SYSTEM, FILE=initial.sav, OUTPUT_PREFIX=Test_out
 
---- START: WARNING ----
Problem reading FILE=initial.sav referenced in RELOAD/SYSTEM command.
Check spelling and/or existence of file. File names are case sensitive.
Command aborted.
---- END: WARNING ---
 
Is my interpretation of how this should work correct? Any thoughts?

  • Would this sequence work...???
     
    I want the Brakes to come on at t=2s
    Initial setup: Step function = step(time,2,0,5,1)
     
    Do the initial run (Takes 30 minutes):
    file/model=initial
    sim/dyn,end=1,dtout=0.01
    save/system,file=initial.sav
    stop
     
    Do the second run (Takes 3 minutes):
    file/model=second
    reload/system,file=initial.sav,output=second
    sim/dyn,end=5,dtout=0.01
    stop
