Using ILAMB on CEDA JASMIN with u-bb897

[Assumpta]

My copy of the ILAMB suite on Jasmine is u-cr183. I want to use ILAMB to compare my different model configurations with observations.

Please, I want to know if there are other files or any updated suite I need to be aware of. Currently, I am experiencing the attached errors (requiring me to link my codes to a compatible netcdf C library) as shown below.

Thanks for your kind assistance.

Also, the ending error message is as shown below

Hi Assumpta:
Looking at this quickly, I think you probably need to do a module load jaspy/2.7 either before starting the suite on cylc1 or in the suite itself somewhere. Does that help?

module load jaspy/2.7

Hi Patrick,
Thanks for your suggestion. I have tried it already.
So in the suite.rc file, I have tried to change ‘module load jaspy’ to ‘module load jaspy/3.7/r20210320’ and also tried changing to ‘module load jaspy/2.7/r20190715’. In both cases, I still get a similar error of compatible netcdf library.

Hi Assumpta:
I don’t have access to your JULES input data as it’s in the hydrojules GWS, so I can’t look at that aspect of it.

Have you tried to run the suite with RUN_ILAMB_PRE_PROC=true ? If the suite has never been run with that set to true, then there would be problems with the RUN_ILAMB step, which is the 2nd step in the process. This u-bb897 suite mainly had the set up for running with RUN_ILAMB_PRE_PROC=false, after it had previously been run with RUN_ILAMB_PRE_PROC=true.

And if you give us read permission to your home directory and subdirectories, I could take a look at your setup and log files. You can do this with:
chmod -R g+rX /home/users/assumpta/

If you have anything private or confidential, you might want to change back the read access on those items.

Hi again, Assumpta:
Also, your error log suggests that it’s missing the file called regions.txt, since I had been running u-bb897 in my local installation on JASMIN for certain regions of the world. I think the checked-in suite u-bb897 is missing that, too. I will fix that. One way to fix it for your installation is to:
cp -p ~pmcguire/roses/u-bb897/app/run_ilamb/file/regions.txt ~assumpta/roses/u-cr183/app/run_ilamb/file/.

Does that help?

Hi Assumpta
Is it working better now?

Hi Patrick,
Thanks for your assistance and suggestions.
I am actually finding it difficult to use the rose suites however, I have found another alternative way to run ilamb directly on Jasmin for my gridded model output, which works fine for me. So, I will continue using this other route.

Cheers,
Assumpta.

Thanks, Assumpta
I appreciate the feedback. Did you have further problems besides those discussed above with ILAMB with the suite? What is your alternative way to run ILAMB directly on JASMIN?
Patrick

[Assumpta]

Thanks, Patrick.
The alternative way was to run ILAMB directly on JASMIN following the tutorial here First Steps — ILAMB 2.6 documentation and it worked for me.

Cheers
Assumpta.

Hi Assumpta:
So you installed ILAMB yourself? Congratulations on successfully doing that.

Can you also try the suggestions I gave about how to fix your problems with the ILAMB Rose/Cylc suite u-bb897? The suggestions were not too difficult. I am interested in finding out if this suite can work for you or not.
