HDF Error when running timeseries on Cheyenne

[andrewpauling]

When running the timeseries generation script on Cheyenne, the script starts and generates some output for the atmosphere, but then after a while it hangs. In the timeseries log file there are repeated "NetCDF: HDF Error" messages, with no further information. This is for generating single-variable timeseries for a 100 year fully-coupled 1 degree run of CESM2. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Andrew,

This package is not officially supported anymore. I will also respond on the forum. A couple things to try:

1. Increase the number of processors in the timeseries script.
2. Try generating each component one at a time.

• set TIMESERIES_GENERATE_ALL in env_postprocess.xml to FALSE.
• manually set tseries_create to TRUE for one component at a time

3. As a last resort, delete the postprocess directory and recreate it. Also delete all of the existing post-processed files. Sometimes things get hung up and starting fresh can help.

Hi Dave,

That's a real shame, it has been such a useful package. Thanks for the suggestions, I will try them out.
