[AWIPS #RXM-953481]: CAVE - NCEP WPC Surface Fronts Analysis question

Hi Pete,

Two more quick things, I just realized I had an extra ']' in one of the regex's 
I provided.

The previous regex I was meaning to give you for the pqact was:

^([P][A-Z0-9]{3,6}) (....) (..)(..)(..)

One thing to mention, this regex is more generic than the previous one, so it 
has to possibility
to match on more product Ids.  The worry of this is that it might match on 
something that is 
not redbook data, and it would put that data into the redbook directory for 
edex to process.

Another thing you might want to specify, the old action was expecting the file 
name to start
with PQ, but I saw that your product ID started with PY (that's why I removed 
the Q from the
regex), but if you know all of your products will start with PY, you could put 
that back
into the regex, so it would look something like this:

^([PY][A-Z0-9]{3,5}) (....) (..)(..)(..)

Alternatively, if the ID could be either PQ or PY,  you could add that into the 
regex:

^([P(Q|Y)][A-Z0-9]{3,5}) (....) (..)(..)(..)

These second suggestions slightly more specific than the previous one, and 
might be *safer* 
so to speak.

Also, going back to a previous question you had asked:
I haven't found out if there is a possible way to remove a specific product 
from the ldm queue.
Like you had noted, you can delete the queue and then reinsert it and that 
should trigger a 
re-ingest, but you would potentially lose any data that was in the queue.
Another option that Tiffany suggested, was you could slightly change the 
content of the file 
you were trying to insert, that way it wouldn't match it with the one already 
in the queue.
So for example you could have modified the header to be:

****0000007107****
PYAA98 KWNO 221201

Where I added 1 minute to the end of that time.  Then if you re-inserted it 
with the "proper"
product ID, I think it would process it without needing to stop the ldm or 
delete the queue.

Just wanted to pass along that extra information.
Thanks.
