Hello Gembuds,

Most of our scripts are working with the new GFS file names.  However,
I am not getting any 1.0 degree GEMPAK files produced, despite having
the GRIB2 files for them.  

This entry from pqact.gempak_decoders_grid

 CONDUIT prod/gfs.*pgrb2
 PIPE decoders/dcgrib2 -d data/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_CONDUITgfs2.log
 -e GEMTBL=/home/gempak/NAWIPS/gempak/tables

I know is attempting to process all resolutions of the grids, and I
get the gfs0.5deg/*gfs.gem files.  But I do not get the expected
gfs/YYYYMMDDHH_gfs.gem files.  

Here are the current relevant entries that I have in my
/home/gempak/NAWIPS/gempak/tables/grid/gribkey.tbl table including a
comment about the gfs703.gem that I think is the relevant one:

!center sub modelid grid   Output grid file name                   max_grids
!
! GFS grids
007   x   077,81,96 003    data/gempak/model/gfs/YYYYMMDDHH_gfs003.gem   29000
007   x   077,81,96 004    data/gempak/model/gfs0.5deg/YYYYMMDDHHfFFF_gfs.gem   
29000
! as of 11/8/2007, gfs703.gem file comes from GRIB2 version of 1-degree GFS 
from CONDUIT
007   x   077,81,96 703    data/gempak/model/gfs/YYYYMMDDHH_gfs.gem   29000
007   x   077,81,96 @@@    data/gempak/model/gfs/YYYYMMDDHH_gfs@@@.gem   29000

Does anyone else have different entries in their gribkey.tbl file that
are allowing them to get a GEMPAK file for the 1.0 degree GFS grids?

NOTE: I have been able to manually create the file with the new grids
doing this from my conduit/gfs.2015011412 directory: 

 foreach i (gfs.t12z.pgrb2.1p00.f*)
  dcgrib2 -m 35000 -d ~/logs/test.gfs1p00.log -e GEMTBL=$GEMTBL \
  $GEMDATA/model/gfs/2015011412_gfs.gem < $i
 end

and that put 32,972 grids into the file, so I'll be increasing the
29000 max value in the table for sure.  I just have not been able to
figure out what is wrong with the gribkey.tbl entries.

Thanks for any help.

David
