Geeta,

We are unable to provide binaries for an AIX system, because we no longer have one.

Part of your problem is that you have NCARG_ROOT set incorrectly. You have it set to:

> > NCARG_ROOT=/usr/local/lib

and it should be:

> > NCARG_ROOT=/usr/local

Try this fix and see if it fixes your other problem.

Otherwise, you will need to write to the WRF folks (wrfhelp@ucar.edu) to find out about getting the “wrf_wps_dom” function for your version of NCL. It may be that you don’t need to upgrade to NCL V6.2.0, but you could upgrade to say, NCL V6.0.0, which does have some AIX binaries available. But, you need to check with the WRF folks about your version of NCL and what version they recommend in order to use “wrf_wps_dom”.
