[MITgcm-devel] netcdf on Sun

[Martin Losch]

Hi,
I am still having problems on the $%^&* SunFile 15k (just thinking 
about how much cash AWI has put down for this toaster makes me sick):
I can now compile everything with gmake, gawk und this fix in 
mnc_readparms (#undef HAVE_MNCCDIR, what is this mnccdir anyway and why 
do I  not have it?), but when I run this
mprun -np $number_of_processors ./mitgcmuv
(number_of_processors=20) all standard out is directed to the terminal 
(I mean of all 20 processors that I use, all with prefix (PID.TID 
0000.0001)) and I get only model output from one processor/tile: 
T.0000000000.001.001.??ta etc.

What am I doing wrong? I checked with my sysadmins, and they claim that 
I am doing everything right on the OS side.

Martin

PS. Ed, as usual it is probably not possible for me to get an account 
for you on this machine, in case your were about to ask.
PPS. this the optfile I am using:
