Okay, the GMAO data "gained" the dd during the file aggregation
process after CMOR2 was run. And the COLA data does not have the
yyyymmdd format like I thought, I spoke too soon. The GMAO data
provider can rename the files and we can republish but at the moment
we are waiting for more memory for the server. A republish without
the memory would essentially take the server offline for an
unacceptable period of time so this will have to wait. I don't know
when the memory order will arrive but we plan to install it as soon
as possible after that.<br>

Quick answer on my way to a meeting - CMOR2 was used for this and
at least one other dataset that we have (from COLA) that also has
the yyyymmdd format. I'll ask a few other questions after my
meeting but that's the short answer.<br>

I'm copying a contact for the GEOS-5 model who may be able to
provide some information on this. I can't explain why the
monthly file names are inconsistent with what CMOR2 puts out.
Maybe CMOR2 wasn't used. The DRS document doesn't absolutely
forbid including more precision than necessary in specifying
the time-periods, so I don't think we can force them to rename
their files. That being said, my hope was everyone would use
CMOR, so the file names would all follow the same template.<br>
