Why do I get an error message when I try to create a file larger than 2 GiB with the new library?
There are several possible reasons why creating a large file can fail that are not related to the netCDF library: • User quotas may prevent you from creating large files. On a Unix system, you can use the “ulimit” command to report limitations such as the file-size writing limit. • The file system in which you are writing may not be configured to allow large files. On a Unix system, you can test this with a command such as dd if=/dev/zero bs=1000000 count=3000 of=./test which should write a 3 GB file named “test” in the current directory. • There is insufficient disk space for the file you are trying to write. If you get the netCDF library error “One or more variable sizes violate format constraints”, you are trying to define a variable larger than permitted for the file format variant. This error typically occurs when leaving “define mode” rather than when defining a variable. The error cannot necessarily be determined when a variable is first defined, because the last fixed-size vari
