20070715: LDM failure ad UNI

Hi Chris,

Regarding the LDM exiting frequently on your machine...

We recommend that you revise your ldmd.conf actions to stop the
ping-ponging that is occurring for feeds requested redundantly from
idd.unidata.ucar.edu and idd.unl.edu, and to consolidate your requests
into fewer processes.

The following modification will force the delivery from each upstream
feed site into PRIMARY mode and cut the number of upstream requests
from 11 to 7:

change:

request HDS ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
request HDS ".*" idd.unl.edu
request IDS|DDPLUS ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
request IDS|DDPLUS ".*" idd.unl.edu
request FNEXRAD ".*" idd.unl.edu
request FNEXRAD ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
request NNEXRAD ".*" idd.unl.edu
request NNEXRAD ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
request UNIWISC ".*" idd.unl.edu
request UNIWISC ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
request NGRID ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu

to:

# FNEXRAD    - NEXRAD Level III composite images
# IDS|DDPLUS - NOAAPORT global observational data
# UNIWISC    - Unidata-Wisconsin GOES-East/West image sectors
request FNEXRAD|IDS|DDPLUS|UNIWISC ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
request FNEXRAD|IDS|DDPLUS|UNIWISC "(.*)" idd.unl.edu

# HDS        - NOAAPORT model output
request HDS ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
request HDS "(.*)" idd.unl.edu

# NNEXRAD    - NOAAPORT NEXRAD Level III products
request NNEXRAD ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
request NNEXRAD "(.*)" idd.unl.edu

# NGRID      - NOAAPORT model output
request NGRID ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu


You should also consider upgrading to the latest LDM release, LDM-6.6.5.

Questions:

- has there been any operating system upgrades to your machine recently

- how long has your machine been up

If your machine has been up for a "long" time, and if there have been
OS upgrades during this time, you should consider rebooting.

Also, please note that your ldmd.log output indicates that you have
some sort of a problem with GEMPAK decoding that needs looking into:

>> Jul 14 22:12:37 thunder idd.unidata.ucar.edu[13028] ERROR: Terminating due t

  etc.

Of course, after making changes to ldmd.conf, you will need to stop and
restart your LDM:

<as 'ldm'>
ldmadmin restart

Cheers,

Tom
