[ferret_users] Save/append problem
Hi All-
I am merging a bunch of netcdf files together:
use blah.nc
save/append/file=spd.nc/clobber var[i=30:40,j=30:40,l=1:2000]
save/append/file=spd.nc var[i=30:40,j=30:40,l=2001:4000]
save/append/file=spd.nc var[i=30:40,j=30:40,l=4001:6000]
save/append/file=spd.nc var[i=30:40,j=30:40,l=6001:8000]
cancel data/all
cancel var/all
**repeat over next file**
I can do this for 49972 or so time steps, but when I go to add the last
5000
time steps, the error:
Illegal axis coordinates: ...
Variable not found: ...
comes back. The files are identical. I am using ferret 5.70.
I tried using ferret 6.0 but it wont open these files (2.334 GB per file).
Is there a limit as to number of times that ferret can append to a netcdf
file that ferret generates (keep in mind the Time dimension is unlimited).
Thanks for any insight!
