This did help with my actual code, and I've now done my processing. But this bug report was more about the fact that overwriting was converting data to NaNs (in two different ways depending on the code apparently). In my case there is no longer any need to do the overwriting, but this doesn't seem like the expected behaviour of overwriting, and I'm sure there are some valid reasons to overwrite data - hence me opening the bug report. If overwriting is supposed to convert data to NaNs then I guess we could close this issue, but I'm not sure that's intended?","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1197117301 https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/6456#issuecomment-1096382964,https://api.github.com/repos/pydata/xarray/issues/6456,1096382964,IC_kwDOAMm_X85BWXn0,34276374,2022-04-12T08:47:55Z,2022-04-12T08:48:48Z,NONE,"@max-sixty could you explain which bit isn't working for you? The initial example I shared works fine in colab for me, so that might be a you problem. The second one required specifying the chunks when making the datasets (I've editted above). [Here's a link to the colab](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1H6ugbz9Ug208x5fLpmvNxIBdKgASjz7V?usp=sharing) (which has both examples). It's worth noting that the way in which the dataset is broken does seem to be slightly different in each of these examples - in the former example all data becomes NaN, in the latter example only the initially saved data becomes NaN.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1197117301 https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/6456#issuecomment-1094583214,https://api.github.com/repos/pydata/xarray/issues/6456,1094583214,IC_kwDOAMm_X85BPgOu,34276374,2022-04-11T06:01:44Z,2022-04-12T08:48:13Z,NONE,"@max-sixty - I've tried to slim it down below (no loop, and only one save). From the print statements, it's clear that before overwriting the .zarr `ds3` is working correctly, but once `ds3` is saved it breaks the data corresponding to the initial save (now all NaNs). I am guessing this is due to trying to read from and save over the same data, but I wouldn't have expected it to be a problem if it was loading the chunks into memory during the saving. ``` import pandas as pd import numpy as np import glob import xarray as xr from tqdm import tqdm # Creating pkl files [pd.DataFrame(np.random.randint(0,10, (1000,500))).astype(object).to_pickle('df{}.pkl'.format(i)) for i in range(4)] fnames = glob.glob('*.pkl') df1 = pd.read_pickle(fnames[0]) df1.columns = np.arange(0,500).astype(object) # the real pkl files contain all objects df1.index = np.arange(0,1000).astype(object) df1 = df1.astype(np.float32) ds = xr.DataArray(df1.values, dims=['fname', 'res_dim'], coords={'fname': df1.index.values, 'res_dim': df1.columns.values}) ds = ds.to_dataset(name='low_dim').chunk({'fname': 500, 'res_dim': 1}) ds.to_zarr('zarr_bug.zarr', mode='w') ds1 = xr.open_zarr('zarr_bug.zarr', decode_coords=""all"") df2 = pd.read_pickle(fnames[1]) df2.columns = np.arange(0,500).astype(object) df2.index = np.arange(0,1000).astype(object) df2 = df2.astype(np.float32) ds2 = xr.DataArray(df2.values, dims=['fname', 'res_dim'], coords={'fname': df2.index.values, 'res_dim': df2.columns.values}) ds2 = ds2.to_dataset(name='low_dim').chunk({'fname': 500, 'res_dim': 1}) ds3 = xr.concat([ds1, ds2], dim='fname') ds3['fname'] = ds3.fname.astype(str) print(ds3.low_dim.values) ds3.to_zarr('zarr_bug.zarr', mode='w') print(ds3.low_dim.values) ``` The output: ``` [[7. 8. 4. ... 9. 6. 7.] [0. 4. 5. ... 9. 7. 6.] [3. 4. 3. ... 1. 6. 1.] ...

I figured there was probably a better way to achieve the same thing, but it still doesn't seem like the expected behaviour, which is why I thought I should raise the issue here. The files are just sequentially names (as in my example), but the indices of the resulting dataframes are a bunch of unique strings (file-paths, not dates).","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1197117301
