[MITgcm-support] Running a test in parallel

Hi Jody,

I am sorry for the confusion. It is still on the same system, just
different partitions. The computing nodes can only see some partitions
of the system.
I guess my question is, why is MITgcm failing to read  bathymetry.bin
although the file is created?

Thanks,
Luis
