Is your machine running Solaris? If yes, does it have a SPARC processor or x86? If it is Solaris on x86, then you are basically out of luck with McIDAS-X v2016 as neither SSEC nor I have figured out how to get HDF5 to build. On my ToDo list is to create build and install targets that avoid building HDF5 and the routines that need it. I have not gotten to the point of getting this to work yet, however.
