The default value for FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_ICS and FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_LBCS is currently "nemsio". This is an out-dated format that is no longer available operationally (discontinued in March 2021).
Solution
The default should be replaced with one of the other options ("grib2" or "netcdf"). I would suggest "netcdf" as the default since it is the replacement format for native-grid GFS output, but grib2 is also acceptable.
Requirements**
Update the default value for FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_ICS and FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_LBCS to "netcdf" or "grib2".
Acceptance Criteria (Definition of Done)
Update the default value for FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_ICS and FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_LBCS to "netcdf" or "grib2".
Alternative Solutions
Leave the current default, but this is less than ideal, and will only become more obsolete as time moves on
