nco 4.4.4 and pack_output

[mafoipsl]

pack_output is not working with nco 4.4.3 (ada) or 4.4.4 (curie).

On ada, it's possible to test ncrcat directly in this directory with a collection of histmth_xxx file, rebuild still necessary, : /workgpfs/rech/psl/rpsl003/RUN_DIR/TESTNCO443C.38732

Error is :

Patch for histmth files has been deleted. It has to be used again?

[sdipsl]

Can't reproduce the issue. On adapp this works.

module purge
module load nco/4.4.3
module load netcdf

cd /workgpfs/rech/ces/rces452/TESTNCO
rebuild -o histmth.nc histmth_00*
ncrcat --hst -v lon,lat,presnivs,time_counter,time_counter_bnds,aire,ftime_con histmth.nc ftime_con.nc

Test done with nco 4.4.6 at IDRIS.

pack_output OK. Thanks to ncrcat -C options. Test done with -C options added in libIGCM_Sys_ada :

2618 : ncrcat -C $@ > /tmp/out_command.$$ 2>&1

mesh on all ocean/sea ice files OK. Thanks to nco 4.4.6.

ATLAS and MONITORING done. See : ​http://dods.idris.fr/rpsl003/IPSLCM5A/DEVT/pdControl/TESTNCO446A/MONITORING/ and ​http://dods.idris.fr/rpsl003/IPSLCM5A/DEVT/pdControl/TESTNCO446A/ATLAS/

[sdipsl]

Done see r1088. Must target nco 4.4.6 on TGCC and IDRIS.
