-h, --help¶: show this help message and exit

-w, --overwrite¶

-p <prefix>, --prefix <prefix>¶: prefix for relocation directory

-z, --dry_run¶

-v <verstr>, --verstr <verstr>¶: <version> string for DRS

-d, --debug¶

Input file(s) must be valid CMIP6 CF-Compliant netCDF. Relocation directory will be constructed by DRS, under current directory by default, or under prefix(-p).

DRS demands that directory must be contains the attribute <version> as the last part, but since that is “the only DRS element that is not stored as a global attribute” (see http://goo.gl/v1drZl), this is not decided by the filename nor global attributes.

So you have to specify it via --verstr (or -v).
