Hello,

You will need to install parallel-netcdf after installing netcdf-4.3.3.1, not 
before.  NetCDF will look for parallel-netcdf when you configure it.   For 
reference, parallel-netcdf (pnetcdf) is not maintained here at Unidata, but is 
rather a product jointly developed by Northwestern University and Argonne 
National Laboratory. 

In regards to the Intel MPI compilers; I understand that they work with netCDF, 
but we do not have the capabilities to test against them, so I cannot say for 
certain. 

I hope this helps,

-Ward
