[RegCNET] Problem in running RegCM in IBM machine

Dear all,

I am facing some problem in trying to run RegCM3 in a new IBM power5+ 
machine of our institute. The specifiactions of this machine are as 
follows
----------------------------------------------------------
  -- Four 1.9GHz Power5+ Processors.
  -- 8 GB RAM
  -- 73.4 GB * 2 Hard Disk (73.4 GB available for user Data)
  -- POWER GXT 135P Graphics Accelerator
-----------------------------------------------------------
I am using the IBM XL FORTRAN V10.1 installed in this machine.

Initially, while executing the terrain.x, I was getting the following 
error message.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1501-510  Compilation successful for file terrain.f.
        xlf_r -o terrain terrain.o -L../../Commons/env/libibm/ -lnetcdf
Target "all" is up to date.
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program ./terrain because of the following 
errors:
        0509-026 System error: There is not enough memory available now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then in order to overcome this problem, I executed the following command 
in my machine

export LDR_CNTRL=MAXDATA=0x80000000 at LARGE_PAGE_DATA=Y
After using the above coomand, I could execute terrain.x
But when I tried to execute the icbc.x, I am etting the following error
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
 IMPROPER DIMENSION SPECIFICATION (ICBC.f)
   icbc.param:  80 115 18
   DOMAIN.INFO:  0 0 0
   Also check ibyte in icbc.param: ibyte=  4
STOP Dimensions (subroutine gridml)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can anyone understand why I am getting this error message. I have checked 
that after executing the terrain.x, DOMAIN.INFO and DOMAIN.CTL files are 
properly produced in the RegCM/Input directory. But still I am getting the 
above error. 

Thanks in advance for your help.

Dilip.
