[MITgcm-support] Problem for the MITgcm parallelized compilation

[Martin Losch]

Hi Francois,

you need to run the model in a directory where you have the data files, otherwise the model does not see them, i.e. after your successfull make-command you are still in build, where there are no input files, so 
cd ../run
cp ../input/* .
mpirun -np2 ../build/mitgcmuv

Actually, for now, I am testing the verification cases which are given in the .tar file that I have downloaded. So, I chose two examples and I managed to run both. But now, I want to parallelize the computation because it will be needed for my problem. Thus, I changed the nPx/nPy number in the SIZE.h file. Then, I checked the option file that I have to put when I compile the code with genmake2 (I read the HOW TO manual and changed a little bit one of the files which has been made for the most similar machine that is to say I changed directories of MPIrun libraries and includes), and followed the instruction of the Building with MPI part. Moreover, I run these two codes locally, so I don't need any script. The result is that I manage to compile the code but when I want to execute it, it doesn't work.
