Michael,

This is both a usage issue, and the driver not erroring out on that 
invalid use whereas it should.

You should prefix the URL with /vsicurl/ , and if you use Bash as a 
shell, to make sure the double quotes are preserved up to GDAL, you need 
to surround the whole string with single quote characters.

So:

gdalmdiminfo 
'ZARR:"/vsicurl/https://ncsa.osn.xsede.org/Pangeo/pangeo-forge/gpcp-feedstock/gpcp.zarr 
<https://ncsa.osn.xsede.org/Pangeo/pangeo-forge/gpcp-feedstock/gpcp.zarr>"'

and similarly for gdalinfo:

gdalinfo 
'ZARR:"/vsicurl/https://ncsa.osn.xsede.org/Pangeo/pangeo-forge/gpcp-feedstock/gpcp.zarr"'

gdalinfo 
'ZARR:"/vsicurl/https://ncsa.osn.xsede.org/Pangeo/pangeo-forge/gpcp-feedstock/gpcp.zarr":/precip:0' 
(0 here for the 2D slice at time index = 0)

In https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/6330, I've improved doc and error 
messages.
