[Nek5000-users] Transitioning from v16 to v17

[nek5000-users at lists.mcs.anl.gov]

Note, 16.0 was a development version of the code and not an official release. We do strongly recommend to update to v17.0. There is no installation process. Just untar the tarball and compile the code. In less than 2-3min you are done. The code is fully backward compatbile. For more details please check the release notes.

> Hi all,

> Im thinking of transitioning from v16 to v17. I do however have a large number of previous simulations in v16. Id like to be able to keep using them in v17. Additionally the cluster I have acess to has only v16 installed and the process to upgrade the version could take a significant amount of time.

> What is the back-compatibility level between v16 and v17? What factors must I keep in mind so that I can run my v16 versions on v17?
