Hi Dan,
Thank you (and Tim Pugh) for the reminder to look at the JVM settings on
the OS. Through John and Lansings's work, I have been able to get some
of the time partitioning to work with my data set.
I am still getting the "too many files" error when trying to set up a
daily partition, but no such errors with a monthly partition. I have
yet to modify the OS JVM, and I'll try that today.
Much appreciated!
-kevin.

Just a quick plug...
Been closely working with Jahn Caron (up until he left for EGU), and
trying to get featureCollections working for all the major NCDC-NOMADS
Archive datasets. Both Grib1 & 2 ~ With moderate success.
Alot (but not all) of the issues I found were due to problems on our
own file system. Not permissions, but rather
zero-byte and/or corrupt/damaged GRIB records wrecking havoc
with the GRIB scanner and cause it to fail to create the master
time partition / index files.
Caron added some modifications in the last few .wars to make
the GRIB scanner more tolerant, but as you mentioned there are still
lingering issues with it.
The "too many open files" sounds like you may need to adjust
an OS or JAVA env setting. Not an expert on this and perhaps
someone else can chime in. In short, it may not necessarily be
related to the featureCollectionScan.

Here's an update on attempting a Time Partition for model analyses
that are in GRIB1:
I have created a local data structure for testing where I can
write to the file directories (until I can get permission to write
to the file directories of our main archive). The structure is as
follows:
/glade/nwsc_scratch/manross/ds083.2/grib1/yyyy/yyyy.MM/fnl_yyyyMMdd_HH_00_c
When I found the message thread :

So I pared back the dataset from 3.5 years worth of 4 daily files
to just the first month (still 4 files daily) of 2010-2013. This
eliminated the "Too many open files" errors, and created the
respective *.gbx9 and .ncx files, but threw a cast error:

For grins, I tried changing the partition to
timePartition="directory"
dateFormatMark="#grib1/#yyyy"
And got the same ClassCastException.
If I'm missing something obvious, please let me know. I
understand that the GRIB feature collection is still in flux, so
please consider this some testing info. I'm able to make a GRIB
collection without the time partition, but for file browsing, that
partition would be a feature we would really want to incorporate.
Cheers!
