19990820: We are having problems again...

Karli,

I am jumping in mainly to comment on a nids2area question that Karli
mentions near the end of the email.

>Well, to be honest, at this point I am not sure what is really wrong
>with this machine.  We are not getting any weather text, somthing we
>constantly get, and I suppose are requesting them from you.

I did a quick notifyme:

notifyme -vxl- -o 3600 -h breeze.upr.clu.edu

and see text (IDS|DDPLUS), HRS, and others rolling in.

>I have been checking the routing table for the past couple of hours
>quite often and don't see any change, except in the three feedsets I
>listed in my last email. I've been checking the log files and it all
>seems to be working fine.  I've only seen some errors which I don't know
>if they're normal or not:

The never completed message is telling you that that particular product
never came in completely.  The bad size radial message is from the
ldm-mcidas decoder, nids2area.  It is saying that there could have been
a problem in the NIDS data product.  It could also be that your
ldm-mcidas decoders need updating.  We fixed a problem in nids2area
that caused these Bad size radial messages a while ago.  The latest
ldm-mcidas release contains the updated code.

notifyme is a very handy tool for troubleshooting.  When you are not
getting products from your upstream site, you can check to see if
they are getting the products or not.  For instance, you could have
run:

notifyme -vxl - -o 3600 -h aqua.atmos.uah.edu

To see what they have received over the past hour (3600 seconds).
notifyme does not terminate by itself.  If left, it will continue
listing out new products that the '-h' host receives.

I realize that this is very difficult given that you have not been
able to attend any Unidata training workshops.  My advice is to hang
in there and things will get easier as you see more and more of how
the IDD works.
