WRF on ARCHER2

[bhb004]

Does anyone have experience compiling and running WRF on the UK cluster ARCHER2? I've tried both the gnu and cray programming environments with no success. I cannot even get one of the ideal test cases to work.

Hi,
We obviously don't have access to that machine, but we may be able to try to help you with the issue. It may not be the machine that's causing the issue? Have you had success on any other system? If not, then will you package all of your rsl* files into a single *.TAR file, and attach that, along with your namelist.input file? Thanks!

Thanks kwerner for the answer. Sorry, I didn't see it until now! I got help from the cluster support desk. There were scripts available for installing the model, but they needed to be updated. In case anyone else is trying to install on ARCHER2 the scripts are here: build-instructions/apps/WRF/ARCHER2-WRF-4.4 at main · hpc-uk/build-instructions

Thank you so much for updating this! Hopefully it will be helpful to someone else in the future.
