pqact, you will need to ensure the output is to the file name convention
you are expecting. If you are not using the pqact string substitution in
your local file names, then other processing will be unaffected.
Steve,
So if we are using a pattern-action such as
HDS ^[YZ].[QR].*/m(ETA|NAM)
PIPE decoders/dcgrib2 -d data/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_ETA.log
-e GEMTBL=/weather/GEMPAK5.7.2p2/gempak/tables
am I correct in stating that the name of the file would come from the
'gribkey.tbl' file and, unless that 'gribkey.tbl' file is modified, the
file names of this model will still come out as 'YYYYMMDDHH_eta@@@.gem'?
