Hi, thanks for the reply!

you're right, --eta is the problem:

It also fails for one year. :-/

no

no

yes, this one:
find 2006/ -type f -name *.he5 | parallel -j+0 --eta
/home/seiser/src/gtproduct-omi-old netcdf --output /dev/shm/asdf {}

Different places every time.

yes

All files are on a general parallel file system (gpfs).

didn't try, let me know if you want me to test it as I didn't quite
understand what you meant. Thanks for your help.
