@hogrefe.christian and I both tested the test case you uploaded and did not encounter the same error as you. However, note that both of us are on the same system (x86 architecture with RHEL8 OS).
At this point, we can’t offer you much help as we don’t have a ppcle64 architecture to test on, but can offer a suggestion:
- Since you successfully ran the benchmark domain on this workstation, have you tried to run the entire CONUS domain provided through the EQUATES platform? Or perhaps, you can try to window the EQUATES emissions inputs using the m3tool m3wndw to the small domain you created, similar to what the benchmark files provide. This suggestion is based on the hunch that the size of the problem is giving you some issues on the ppcle64 architecture.
Lastly, take note that your MCIP output has 24 output steps not 25, which with your runscript fails to run hours for 23:00:00 Aug 2, 2019 - 00:00:00 Aug 3, 2019, as there are no met data to interpolate fields between those two times. Just something worth noting, but not related to your actual issue.
