Is that the reason for why cb_nodes is 1?<br>
Strange, because cb_nodes is set at the file open time.<br>

Entering the independent data mode in PnetCDF can be completely avoided<br>

<br>
I would suggest your codes to use the nonblocking APIs in the following way.<br>
<br>

if (rank == 0) {<br>
ncmpi_iput_var_int(fh, varid[0], data[0], &req[0]); /* write the whole variable */<br>
ncmpi_iput_var_int(fh, varid[1], data[1], &req[1]);<br>
...<br>
