64- or 32-bit Version of NetCDF

[belochitski@yahoo_com]

Hello,

I am trying to compile CAM2.0.1 on IBM p690 (NCAR's Bluesky) and do not seem to be able to use the 64-bit version of NetCDF library. The model compiles without problems with the 32-bit NetCDF. Is it supposed to work only with 32-bit version?

Thank you,

Alexei Belochitski

The AIX build for cam2.0.1 was only for 32 bit addressing, so the 32 bit version of the netCDF library is the correct one to use. Updating it for 64 bit addressing will require modifications to the Makefile. You could look at the Makefile for a newer version of CAM to see how to do this.
