So one of the reasons I have to use CDF-5 is that netcdf4 does not support
large arrays (>2GiB), but CDF-5 does.So I have a question: Is it possible to
break a large file into netcdf4 files and write a parent wrapper around it and
use that as input to paraview? What I mean is to write a pvti (or similar)
parent file, that links smaller netcdf files together. Paraview recognizes
netcdf4, so that should not be a problem.If this works, then the size
limitation of netcdf would not be a problem and I can avoid going the CDF-5
route.

distribution of ParaView. By the way, the NetCDF library used in the
ParaView reader could only support NetCDF classic as default and you might
need to install from source using NetCDF4 library.
ParaView has supported netcdf4 since 3.14. 3.14.0 only through our internal
libnetcdf/hdf; 3.14.1 added it through external too.
However, I do not know if anyone has used the pnetcdf variant. You may be the
first Amir.
Can anyone else on the list comment on the status of pnetcdf support in
ParaView?
I hope it helps,
