[IDD #MPQ-937932]: Local Data Manager Question

Hi Mary,

OK.  I am not surprised that I remembered what transpired in December 
incorrectly...

I just logged in on aeolus and saw that the REQUEST for the NLDN LIGHTNING
feed from UAlbany had not been updated to use the new name for their
top level LIGHTNING relay.  Their LDM was moved to a VM and renamed
sometime in fall of 2015.  David Knight (the NLDN contact at UAlbany)
sent out a note to the address@hidden email list announcing
the change in names when the change was made, so I guess that you did
not see the notification.

I changed the REQUEST line in the ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf file on aeolus and
then restarted the LDM.  NLDN data should once again flow to you.  A
a quick look at the real-time stats page for aeolus shows that the
NLDN lightning data is once again flowing:

re:

OK.  It was a simple name change so aeolus was trying to REQUEST the
LIGHTNING feed from a machine that no longer exists.

Please let your user know that the feed has been re-established.

Cheers,

Tom
