-ORCHIDEE is parallelized using the librairy MPI and OpenMP in hybrid mode which means using both method at the same time. Running the offline ORCHIDEE driver it is only possible to activate the MPI parallelization. Using ORCHIDEE coupled to LMDZ, the default mode is now hybrid mode but using only MPI or sequential mode is still possible. For OpenMP in LMDZ, use LMDZ5/trunk rev 1729 with some modifications (see below) or rev 1907 or later and for ORCHIDEE use revision 1615 on the trunk or later.
