10. Some operational FLEXPART ECMWF fields are missing – how to get them!
Some operational ECMWF fields are missing – what do you do? Where do you get them?
There are three options:
1) The files have been retrieved and sent to NILU but there were data problems at NILU so they only got to the temp folder.
Check if the files are in the temp directory at:
/xnilu_wrk/nilu_wrk2/tmp_ECMWF/
Copy the ones missing over to
/xnilu_wrk/flex_wrk/WIND_FIELDS/all_fields_oper_ecmwf/
2) The files were retrieved at ECWMF but not sent over to NILU.
Check if the files are in the temp folder at ECMWF under Sabine’s directory.
Say
els ectmp://sbc/oper_2012_10
Change the year and date to the one you want to check.
If they are there – send them over to NILU by the command ectrans. Example:
ectrans -remote nina@genericSftp -source ectmp://sbc/oper_2012_10/EN12100000
NB: make sure you use one of the affiliation you have set up for ec_trans on the webpage *** (here is used nina but you can change it to e.g. flexpart if you have set up that one on your account).
This command cannot be used with wildcards such as *.
To transfer several files at once use a script containing the following:
(this one transfers all files on the 16th October 2012)
- !/bin/ksh
for f in `els ectmp:/sbc/oper_2011_10 | grep EN121016* | awk '{print $9}'` do echo $f ectrans -remote nina@genericSftp -source ectmp:/sbc/oper_2012_10/$f done
3) The files were not retrieved at ECMWF so you would need to retrieve them again.
