noresm2nc4mpi - hexagon compression tool for NorESM output
Run /work/shared/noresm/tools/noresm2nc4mpi -h to print detailed instructions:
Usage: /work/shared/noresm/tools/noresm2nc4mpi <absolute path to case in archive directory>
Example: export ACCOUNT=nn9039k
export WALLTIME=24:00:00
noresm2nc4mpi /work/ingo/archive/my-noresm-case
Purpose: Converts NorESM output to compressed netcdf 4 format and gzips restart files
Description: noresm2nc4mpi is fully mpi parallized and submits a pbs job
to the queue to do the compression on the backend.
IMPORTANT: Only run one instance of noresm2nc4mpi on a single case
at a time. Yet, it is safe to run multiple instances of noresm2nc4mpi
on multiple NorESM cases at a time. In case that a noresm2nc4mpi job
terminates before completion then simply run noresm2nc4mpi again
(the tool with continue where it stopped).
