     Just to follow up on our frequent LDM stoppages...
     
     We still periodically receive the "signal 11" terminations of the 
     program.  These events seem to be tied to the connection to the same 
     site each time.  Although we have not determined the cause of the 
     terminations, we have at least installed a script (courtesy of Western 
     Region SSD) which checks to see if the LDM is running and if not, 
     restarts it.  At least that keeps us in business.  
     
     I still would like to know what is causing these problems.  I have 
     eliminated the possibility that it is related to a disk filling up or 
     to conflict with CPU usage.  I did check with the site on the other 
     end and it turns out they are running version 5.0.6.  Based on my 
     conversation, they will try installing 5.0.8 (the version we are 
     running) to see if that makes a difference.

Ken,
     
This is reaching but I have some sites that have problems when their site 
interacts with sites using a different version of the LDM, they lose data, 
have trouble connecting, etc. I might be worth while to have all the sites 
running the same version of the LDM.  I only bring this up because the 
run_requester seems to be the process bringing down the whole LDM.

Another test would be to eliminate some of the request to different sites 
to find which one is the culprit. Then have that site update the LDM 
version as stated above.

I forgot to warn you that verbose logging in the LDM can make the logs 
huge and cause disk space problems.
