CMOR crashes if a CV string value exceeds the 1023 character limit. No error or warning message is produced that could indicate which value is over the limit.
A warning or error should be thrown when strings go over the limit. An error can simply show the user which attribute in the file is over the limit. A warning could also be used to indicate that a string is over the limit and will be truncated to fit within the character limit.
I'm more in favor with the error approach since CMOR should keep dataset attributes true to the CV.
