DMS2_batch_prefs MCMC does not converge on certain ENV sites

There is a readme file within the zipped folder that describes the issue in more detail and how to reproduce it, but this is the error I am getting when running DMS2_batch_prefs:

@jiroop: This issue should be posted with the dms_tools2 repo, not the phydms repo, since it affects the former.

I have closed issue, can you repost on dms_tools2.
