Field size mismatch in MOM6

[rahulpai]

Dear all,

I'm new to MOM6 and currently trying to carry out model-based experiments for my research work.
I got the following error while trying to run the test case OM4_025 from MOM6/ice_ocean_SIS2/ using the restart files.

"FATAL from PE 9: fms_io(read_data_3d_new), field u in file RESTART/MOM.res.nc: field size mismatch 1"
1441 1080 75 1440 1080 75
1441 1080 75 1440 1080 75

The error file generated is attached to this post.
Can someone please suggest how to fix this?
Any help/suggestion is appreciated.


Thanks and regards,
Rahul Pai

We just discussed this. It looks like the restart was created using the non-symmetric memory mode but the current executable is using the symmetric memory mode. Currently it is required that the memory mode not be changed. Can you try with the non-symmetric executable?

Thank you so much for your kind response.
Can you please let me know how can I create the restart with non-symmetric memory mode?

If you use the same executable for both stages of the run then everything should be consistent (i.e. generate the restart and read the restart with the same executable). If you are using a restart from elsewhere, you should recompile the executable to be consistent with that. We have no tool to convert the restart.
