This section shows how to enable XIOS when compiling OpenIFS so the model can use it.

Compile OpenIFS with XIOS enabled

- environment variables to set

- walk through

TO BE DONE


Run OpenIFS with XIOS enabled

- arguments to use for oifs_run

- namelist switch to enable

- XML files, how to modify (will need Xavier's help with this)

- netcdf output: how to combine with multiple tasks

- enabling regular lat-lon grid output (and the implications)










Please note: as XIOS is not used operationally at ECMWF, we can only provide help on a best effort basis. We encourage users to post questions on XIOS to the OpenIFS User Forums to get help from other users in the OpenIFS community.
