Problem building CAM3.1 on an IBM

[ginah@udel_edu]

Hi,

I am trying to compile and run CAM3.1 on an IBM and am having some problems with my netcdf libraries. As far as I can tell the build is almost complete but the errors below are in relation to netcdf errors. I installed netcdf on the system in 64-bit mode (as per aix platform instructions) and I checked that the Makefile is in 64-bit mode also. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated,

Gina.

Hi there,

after working on the problem in my previous post and corresponding with some people at unidata, I think my problem is in the compiler options when building netcdf-3.6.2 on the AIX 5.3. Has anyone built or had experience installing netcdf on this platform? I have not gotten the right combination of settings as of yet as I keep getting error messages such as:

ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .nf_strerror
ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .nf_close

at the end of my cam3.1 make and it can't seem to link with the netcdf libraries. A suggestion I have gotten is that I am using two different fortran compilers when building netcdf and cam3.1 . I have tried to set these to the same: cc = xlc_r and fc = xlf90_r as prescribed in the cam3.1 makefile but this has not solved my problem.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated,
Gina.
