Hi John:
We have run into this too, particularly when adding new datasets. Whenever we
do, we always do the following and find it clears up the problem:
1. Delete all of $TOMCAT_HOME/content/thredds/cache/agg
2. Delete all of $TOMCAT_HOME/content/thredds/cache/ehcache
not certain ehculprit - it looks like the ehcache might assosciate the agg
cache with certain datasets, and if that gets changed the list gets out of
whack, but that is a wild guess. What I do know is that when we have that
problem, those two steps clear it up.
The downside is that access to large aggregate datasets is slow the first time
they are accessed.
