To TGCM lightning users: Now that lightning is back up after it's major OS upgrade, there are a few new twists to building and running the models: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- To get a PGI license for the compiler, add the following lines to your .cshrc file on lightning: setenv PGI /usr/local/pgi setenv LM_LICENSE_FILE /usr/local/pgi/license.dat ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Next, in ~/.ssh on lightning, remove the file known_hosts. Then make a new file called config, with the following single line: StrictHostKeyChecking no Then next time you run on lightning, it will make a new key for you, and regenerate the known_hosts file. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Finally (well, there's probably more to come), the locations of NetCDF library and include files have changed. I will be fixing this in tgcm_config so that it will put the following at the top of the Makefile for a lightning build: LIB_NETCDF := /usr/local/netcdf/3.5.1-pgi5.2-64/lib INC_NETCDF := /usr/local/netcdf/3.5.1-pgi5.2-64/include If you need to compile an earlier version of the model with the old tgcm_config, you can put these 2 lines at the top of the Makefile yourself. I am hopeful that SCD will link these to the old standard locations /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/include, but until then we must do the above. --Ben
