Hi David, Unfortunately there is no information about error in the rsl.out.*, rsl.error and wrf.out files. The error message mentioned in the previous email appeared in the wrf.err file. Both rsl.out and rsl.error shows stopping of integration at the time of crash and that is it. I am just wondering if there is a way to monitor processes and to know the reason if some process dies.
