Hi Rob: 1) timeUnitsChange is valid only for forecastModelRunCollection and forecastModelRunSingleCollection. I need to add it to regular joinExisting, since that should work for your case also. Did you have the impression that it should work for joinExisting from the docs somewhere? This one is doing what I expect (I think): <datasetFmrc name="CIP FMRC Case 1" path="data/cip/fmrcCase1" > <metadata inherited="true"> <serviceName>ncdods</serviceName> <dataFormat>GRIB-1</dataFormat> </metadata> <netcdf xmlns="http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/namespaces/netcdf/ncml-2.2" enhance="true"> <aggregation dimName="runtime" type="forecastModelRunCollection" timeUnitsChange="true" recheckEvery="2 min"> <scan location="C:/data/AStest/ral/" subdirs="true" regExp=".*_CIP.grb" dateFormatMark="#yyyyMMddHH" enhance="true"/> </aggregation> </netcdf> </datasetFmrc> what do you see wrong with it? Im looking at the other variants to see what problems there are. 2) > the OpenDAP service for each of those datasets becomes "null.html". ok, i have a fix for that. You can avoid problem by not putting spaces in the dataset name in the catalog, but i will now replace spaces with "_".
