Joe: not only does fvsetup has the issue w/ the non-generic reference to the path of FVROOT, but I am finding that so does monthly_setup.pl in GEOSdas_App.

The problem again is that the logic in the script is such that FVROOT ends up being something like the absolute path:

FVROOT /gpfsm/dnb05/projects/p61/user/...

instead of the generic (relative) path:

FVROOT /discover/nobackup/projects/gmao/....

This lack of generality causes a weakness in the system related to the possibility of the file system moving to a different physical location (dnb02 to dnb05, for example) with a consequence breakage of the DAS ... if the path is the generic relative path, all works regardless of what happens underneath.

BTW: This needs a fix in both Git and CVS versions ... we will need a patch in the CVS side of things.
