Jerry,

NWS was performing some router maintenance this morning. The downtime
was expected to be short, but it appears that posting of the 12Z eta 
to CONDUIT was affected, and the GFS 1 degree only saw 171-180 hours
posted. Its possible that the maintenance referenced below had some
effect causing the file posting triggers to be missed by the systems
inserting the data into CONDUIT.

We'll check into this.

On Monday Aug 8 2005 at 7:00am EDT (11:00 UTC), we will modify the
network configuration of our public router at the NWS Telecommunications
Gateway (NWSTG  Washington, DC). 

A maintenance period of 1hr  is scheduled, but we hope the actual
downtime will be less.  


Affected Traffic:

The scheduled network modifications are part of the TG migration to its
replacement network structure.
  
We expect the following traffic will not be affected during the
configuration changes:
       Radar multicast
       Traffic from directly connected customers
       Radar level 2
       Alaska sockets


We expect all traffic to our public networks will be affected during the
maintenance period.
Below is a list of some of the affected traffic:
    Administrative traffic from the Campus and SSMC2 to public networks 
    Access to TG public servers
    Access to Hydrology
    Radar LDM to regions



Critical Weather:

If the scheduled date is designated a Critical Weather Day, the outage 
will be postponed. 
 

We apologize for any inconvenience that this outage may cause.  Please 
contact me if the timing of this outage presents a critical problem for 
your operations.

Please forward this message to anyone who will be affected by this 
action but was left off the mailing list.  I would appreciate if you 
would send me the email address of anyone that should be informed of 
scheduled downtime in the future, but was not included in the current 
list.  Also, inform me if you wish to have your name removed from this 
list.
