Hello Samy,

I apologize for the delayed response.  CDO is not a utility which we support 
here; the homepage for it may be found here:  https://code.zmaw.de/projects/cdo 
.  However, from the error you supplied, I can see at least one issue; netcdf 
requires hdf5 version 1.8.9 or later, and it appears that you are running 
version 1.8.8.  You should update to a newer version (the current version is 
1.8.13) and see if the error persists.

Thanks, have a great day,

-Ward
