CTests fail for current HEAD on chrysalis #565

Closed

Description

@philipwjones

CTests fail on chrysalis with both intel and gnu:
12 - HORZOPERATORS_SPHERE_TEST (Failed)
14 - AUXVARS_SPHERE_TEST (Failed)
23 - TEND_SPHERE_TEST (Failed)
25 - FORCING_SPHERE_TEST (Failed)

Presumably these are tolerance/expected value issues, but we really can't have CTests failing for a commit and these should have been modified before merging.

    @philipwjones, I can't reproduce this. Develop at 5dfd2ae passes all 49 CTests on Chrysalis with Intel (and gnu) in Release, built and run with the Polaris Omega CTest utility, which links OmegaSphereMesh.nc to cosine_bell_icos480.omega_vars.260807.nc from https://web.lcrc.anl.gov/public/e3sm/polaris/ocean/omega_ctest/. Log:

    /lcrc/group/e3sm/ac.xylar/polaris_1.1/chrysalis/test_20260921/omega_ctest_565/develop_5dfd2ae/omega_ctest_chrysalis_intel.o1292001
    

    The four failing tests are exactly the ones that use OmegaSphereMesh.nc, so I suspect an outdated sphere mesh file. Which file is yours linked to? The 260807 file is the one the QuickStart points to; the expected norms in the sphere tests are tuned to it. Note that #547 will change the expected mesh again (to 260911).

    Ah, that was it, sorry. When I updated the other files recently, I grabbed the 260911 version assuming it was the latest....
