Re: NEXRAD Level II Maintenance Notification - (Tuesday 10/11/2022) (TDS )



Activity complete for today.  The TOC Cluster (now in Ashburn, VA) is down due to problems re-establishing all the comms circuits at the new location.  Connections to radars have been restored, but more time is needed to restore connections between Ashburn and Norman, and connections to clients.

We will be working on it tomorrow, October 12th, from 9am to 1pm (CDT).

Reminder, the data path via the Norman/RDS NL2 server is not part of this activity.  Please keep BOTH NL2 connections, Ashburn & Norman, up to avoid data flow interruption.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

The Radar Operation Center (ROC) will be moving the National Level II (NL2) servers at the Silver Spring Metro Center 2 (SSMC2) location in Silver Spring, MD to the NOAA Enterprise Data Center (EDC) in Ashburn, VA.  This will affect the data flow of the Level II Network TDS (public) path.

The activity will take about 4 hours to complete and will impact data flow of the "Silver Spring/TDS Level II Path"  during the entire window.

The data path via the Norman/RDS NL2 server is not part of this activity. (No service interruption via RDS path is anticipated.)

Please keep BOTH NL2 connections, Silver Spring (soon to be Ashburn) & Norman, up to avoid data flow interruption.
