Hello,

You will need to use 'parallel-netcdf' for netCDF3 files; if you are working 
with netCDF4 files ,you will need to install parallel-hdf5.  netCDF4 uses the 
HDF5 library for file I/O.  If libhdf5 was installed with parallel I/O support, 
you should not need to do anything extra with netCDF.  

I hope this information is helpful,

-Ward
