[IDD #KSB-345648]: LDM Glider data. (notifyme)



Hi Chuan-Yuan,

'notifyme' just lists the LDM/IDD metadata we refer to as its Product ID for
products.  It doesn't care if the products themselves are in binary or ASCII
formats.

OK, but the question still remains: is glider data being distributed in the IDD?
Please remember that the content of the IDS|DDPLUS and HDS feeds is what the
National Weather Service is sending to its forecast offices via the NOAAPort
Satellite Broadcast Network.  We neither add data nor remove products from the
data being delivered in datastreams that derive from NOAAPort.

This says that no product in the HDS datastream with a Product ID that begins 
with 'IOP'
was seen on idd.unidata.ucar.edu during the time that you ran 'notifyme'.

OK.

Please remember that 'notifyme' will show all of the products being received
by the machine it is interrogating.  Changing an action in a pattern-action
file (e.g., ~ldm/etc/pqact.conf), will have no effect on what 'notifyme' will
report.  Also remember that in order to process a product, a pattern-action
file action must match the extended regular expression you include in the
action.

re:

OK.  One quick comment on your action:

- you action assumes that the day and time of the product match
  the day and time of your system's clock

  While this is true for most of the time, it will not be correct
  when your clock is running in local time and the product's day/time
  are in UTC.  A better way of writing this action is:

HDS<tab>^IO.... KWNB (..)(..)
<tab>FILE<tab>-close<tab>-overwrite data/ldm/bufr/(\1:yy)(\1:mm)\1\2.bufr

  This form uses the day contained in the Product ID (e.g., '23' of '231700')
  as a flag/clue to 'pqact' to create the correct date.

re:
> Here is my question.
>

If you run 'notifyme -vl- -v ANY -p "^IOP" ...' for long enough (e.g., a full 
day)
and you do not see any indication of one being found, it means that there are no
products being delivered in the IDD that have a Product ID that matches.

re:
> 2. What is the meaning of the 159507651 in the line

> Aug 23 18:58:47 notifyme[18586] INFO:    24238 20170823163315.099     HDS

It is a sequence number.  It is not part of the Product ID which is 'IOSX01 
KWBC 231633 /pBUFR'

re:
> 3. I have check my pqact.conf by ldmadmin pqactcheck.  I didn’t see any error.

OK, good.

re:
> Do you know why can I not see any downloading data in my data directory 
> “data/ldm/bufr”.

It is likely that there are no products that match the extended regular 
expression
that you are using in your pattern-action file action(s).  Again, if 'notifyme'
does not show the receipt of a product you are interested in, then the 
action/actions
you have defined for that product/those products will never be executed.

Cheers,

Tom
