Hi Carissa & James,
Thanks for your note - glad to hear that the page I was referencing is not out
of date. I think everything is okay now.
Yes, I am able to see products out to 84 hours using notifyme, so the issue was
definitely on our end. I'm just confused as to why (without any configuration
changes) we would stop receiving these extra grids.
I tinkered around with the pqact file and the configuration below seems to be
working this morning for NAM218 and NAM212. We are receiving the grids beyond
F060 - just received the F063-072 hr grids. Our old pattern was set to match
either HDS or CONDUIT, so perhaps HDS only sends out 60/48 hours?
# NAM #218 12km grid CONUS
CONDUIT prod/nam.*awip12
PIPE /home/ldm/decoders/dcgrib2 -d
/home/ldm/data/ldm/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_NAM218.log
-e GEMTBL=/store1/gempak/GEMPAK6.7.0/gempak/tables
#
#NAM #212 40km grid CONUS
CONDUIT prod/nam.*awip3d
PIPE /home/ldm/decoders/dcgrib2 -d
/home/ldm/data/ldm/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_NAM212.log
-e GEMTBL=/store1/gempak/GEMPAK6.7.0/gempak/tables
I also noticed that the volume of data transferred on the CONDUIT feed
according to Unidata's stats page is back up to where it should be this
morning...
James - thanks for the note regarding the maximum number of grids - I'll
definitely check that out and modify as necessary.
Thanks again for the help!
- Phil
