The OpenIFS package will run on a variety of Unix based systems: Unix/Linux, Mac OS X. There is no support for running OpenIFS under Windows.
Install separately:
grib-api - this is available from the OpenIFS ftp download site. Although this is also available from the ECMWF software download page, it's recommended the one provided on the ftp site is used as it will have been tested and known to work with OpenIFS. See the grib_api for OpenIFS install page for more details on how to build grib_api for OpenIFS.
OpenIFS requires the following to be available in order to build and run:
...
lapack & blas libraries - these are usually available on all flavours of Linux/Unix. Some systems, notably HPC installations will have special optimized versions of these libraries. These should be used instead (if a version exists for your choice of compiler) to achieve a better performance. You may need to modify the compile configuration to access these optimized libraries.
In addition two other packages need to be installed prior to the compilation of the OpenIFS code.
Perl modules required.
Software called FCM is used to FCM - used to build and compile the model. FCM is available from the OpenIFS ftp download site. FCM is developed by the UK Meteorological Office. For more information, please visit: FCM home page. Note that FCM provided with OpenIFS. However, note that it may need additional Perl modules installed. Check the FCM install page for more detailsThe two most likely missing modules are: XML::ParserCheck and Time::Piece. To check a Perl module is installed e.g. XML::Parser, type the command perl -MXML::Parser -e 1. If the module is not installed this will cause an error.grib-api - this is available from the OpenIFS ftp download site. Although this is also available from the ECMWF software download page, it's recommended the one provided on the ftp site is used as it will have been tested and known to work with OpenIFS.
