[IDV #TRF-422609]: IDV - so many grib files...

Alan-

> I don't see aggregate grib files as an option.

That was added in version 2.2, I think.

> Is it time for me to upgrade my IDV?

Since the current version is 2.3, I'd say yes.  Best to keep
around the old version in case we broke something we don't
know about.  If  we did (i.e. old bundles don't work right),
let us know.  We go  to great lengths to be backward compatible.
