About the version of FATES in CESM

[Zh Chen]

Dear all,
I am currently focused on the DGVM, I've noticed that the version of FATES is quite old, the FATES tag is sci.1.71.0_api.33.0.0 in Externals_CLM.cfg, no matter whether in the latest CESM2.2.2 or 2.1.5. I'm uncertain if the tag is just a bug or maybe I should use the latest CTSM if I want the latest FATES.

Currently, I am using the CTSM5.1.dev165. However, I cannot find the model_meshfile in inputdata when I,

./create_newcase --case mycase --res hcru_hcru_mt13 --compset I2000Clm50SpRs --compiler intel --mach mycomp --run-unsupported
./preview_namelists
##ERROR File not found: model_meshfile = 'inputdata/share/meshes/360x720_120830_ESMFmesh_c20210507.nc'

Maybe the model_meshfile should be

360x720_120830_ESMFmesh_c20210507_cdf5.nc

in SVN.

And, I encounter an error in CTSM5.1.dev165, which is also present in CESM2.2.2, but not in CESM2.1.5, when I,

./case.build --skip-provenance-check

## ERROR: /public23/home/CESM/models/CTSM5.1.dev165/cime/CIME/build_scripts/buildlib.pio FAILED, cat /public23/home/CESM/CESM-case/ctsm_165/mycaseD165_run/I2000Clm50SpRs_hcru/bld/pio.bldlog.240122-220818

My pnetcdf version is 1.12.1. Thank you. Any help is appreciated.

I doubt the tag is a bug. It just means that cesm2.2.2 and 2.1.5 include the same version of Fates.

The second one sounds like a bug though. In dev165, you can see one way to fix it in this file:
cime_config/testdefs/testmods_dirs/clm/sowingWindows/user_nl_clm

I do not know how to help with the third issue.
