[RegCNET] an apparently random mpi abort

[James Ciarlo`]

Dear RegCNET,

I have been running several test simulations with RegCM4 using mpi.
However, in many cases, the simulation never even started and aborted very
early on.

The people in charge of our computer cluster suggested the use of a sleep
command, and in some cases it seemed to help (especially when a larger
number of processors was used).

I haven't yet managed to solve this problem. At the moment, I just try the
simulation again. My colleagues have not yet identified the source of the
problem. So I am sending this email, just in case anyone has encountered
such errors before.

I am attaching some of these errors.

Regards,
James
