Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
Hi Don,Did you happen to create a custom variable renamer (varrenamer.xml)? As far as I know, nothing in GribVariableRenamer or the variable renamer xml file in the CDM has changed.
Thanks for the offer to bounce ideas off of you (especially since you are not paid to do this). The idea I have is to include the variable attribute "Grib_Variable_Id", which every variable has, into the bundle. An example value of this would be value="VAR_0-3-5_L100", which is made up of the grib parameter discipline, category, name, and level codes. Another through is that we could add a method to the Variable object that returns a unique id that would by default return the "name", but could return an actual unique id, dependent on the data model being dealt with (may be similar to Grib_Variable_Id for GRIB, variable name for netcdf, etc.).
Thanks again! Sean On 4/3/14, 8:35 AM, Don Murray (NOAA Affiliate) wrote:

As I pointed out on Monday, in this bundle: http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/repository/entry/get/gfs-nh-sh.xidv?entryid=d178fe25-5bfd-40cf-930d-960adcbe3d30 the U and V wind variables have changed when pointed to 4.5 on thredds-test.I will track this down, but its probably that WMO or NCEP changed their tables. sean has some ideas how to improve bundles to help with this ongoing problem, but i dont know of a short term fix at the moment.This bundle predates TDS version 4.3 and uses the GribVariableRenamer API to lookup the corresponding name in the new grib package. The problem seems to be that GribVariableRenamer pointing to TDS 4.3 returns one match for "U-component_of_wind" (i.e. u-component_of_wind_isobaric), but in 4.5, it is returning multiple matches. The variable name seems not to have changed, but the response from GribVariableRenamer has. Sean, if you want to bounce any ideas on how to improve the bundles, I'd be happy to listen/help. Don
