[MITgcm-support] ptracer error

[Neil Patel]

I modified my data.ptracer to include more ptracers [edited a pickup] and got this error when running on NCAR’s Cheyenne:

MPT ERROR: MPI_COMM_WORLD rank 18 has terminated without calling MPI_Finalize

appears the error is in ptracers_readparm around line 2006. Last lines of my STDOUT.0000 are it opening my data.ptracers file. My data.ptracers file:

&PTRACERS_PARM01
PTRACERS_numInUse=3,
PTRACERS_Iter0=815500,
# tracer 1
PTRACERS_diffKr(1)=1.E-5,
PTRACERS_initialFile(1)='tracer_agulhas_only.bin',
PTRACERS_names(1)='TRAC01',
# tracer 2
PTRACERS_diffKr(2)=1.E-5,
PTRACERS_initialFile(2)='tracer_agulhas_only.bin',
PTRACERS_names(2)='TRAC02',
# tracer 3
PTRACERS_diffKr(3)=1.E-5,
PTRACERS_initialFile(3)='../plio_ncar/tracer_32n.bin',
PTRACERS_names(3)='TRAC03',
&

Current niter0= 3090000, so it should be reading from a pickup not initialFile. Any idea of what could be wrong? I don’t see any obvious typos.

Thanks,

Neil
