Hi Matt,

re. 1), order doesn't matter.

I just ran the global_ocean.90x40x15
on 2 processors under 'module load mpich/intel'
and it ran fine.
Have a look under
/home/heimbach/ecco/MITgcm/verification/global_ocean.90x40x15/build/
for the compile and output
and
/home/heimbach/ecco/MITgcm/jobs/
for the job script (which is basically yours).

For compile, I did
../../../tools/genmake2  -of 
../../../tools/build_options/linux_ia32_ifort+mpi_aces -mpi -mods ../code

Maybe a different problem?
For that, a more detailed bug report would be needed
(which file does it try to read when crashing?)

-Patrick
