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.
