[ncl-talk] how to use crontab to run a ncl job

[yang yang]

Dear Sir/Madam:

I would like to auto-run a bash script using crontab on a linux HPC.
The bash script looks as below. Only the ncl job cannot be done. However,
if I run it manually, it can be run without any problem. Can you please
tell me how to make the right setting so that my bash script can be run
successfully using crontab? Thank you very much!
Regards
Ed
