Jim,

The LDM at OSO is fed by dbnet from the Crays, so whenever the Crays are down,
no data can get injected.

We did receive some MRF grids today through 192 hours, as noted
by the times of these .status files:

I have the grid 2 and grid3 files decoded here:
-rw-rw-r--    1 ldm      ustaff      7958528 Oct  1 07:15 
1999100100_mrf_grid002.gem
-rw-rw-r--    1 ldm      ustaff    363787264 Oct  1 06:34 
1999100100_mrf_grid003.gem

The grid003 file of 360MB looks fairly complete.
From what I see in my ldm logs:
Sep 30 16:09:45 5Q:flip iita2(feed)[8641642]: Exiting
ldmd.log:Oct 01 10:42:58 5Q:flip australis[8836134]: Connection from 
australis.rap.ucar.edu
ldmd.log:Oct 01 10:42:58 5Q:flip australis(feed)[8836134]: topo:  
australis.rap.ucar.edu NMC2


It looks like iita2 disconnected yesterday and australis connected this morning.
