ensure WDL compatibility with Azure

Closed this issue · 2 comments

See compatibility notes here:
https://github.com/microsoft/CromwellOnAzure/blob/master/docs/change-existing-WDL-for-Azure.md/#How-to-modify-an-existing-WDL-file-to-run-on-Cromwell-on-Azure

Mostly focused on making sure some of the runtime block items are specified in compatible ways (ie, that memory and disk always have units attached) and that we add a maxRetries synonym for wherever we specify preemptible. We might already be compatible, it's just worth going through and double checking...

Thanks for letting us know and for the information! This will be a necessary change as Terra on Azure becomes available.

Will try to do a pr next week to get this started
