Hello there, Are there any capabilities for building and running any UFS components (SRW, etc.) using ARM (aarch64) architecture systems? Has anybody tried it? Joe Hellmers |

Hello joehellmers, Yes, some UFS components (including the SRW App) can be built and run on ARM/aarch64 systems. However, ARM is not currently an officially supported or regression‑tested architecture within the UFS framework. Community experience suggests that it is feasible. For example, running the SRW App on non‑NOAA HPC, as discussed here: ufs-community/ufs-srweather-app#1346, shows that community members have successfully built UFS components on non-tier1 platforms using spack‑stack and creating custom site configurations. The same general approach applies when working with ARM systems. Thank you, Josh Kublnick |
