Hi Larry, 

Since iita feeds from thelma, which feeds from motherlode, I would
strongly suggest you re-direct your UNIDATA, DIFAX, FSL2, requests from:

ldmarchive.agron.iastate.edu
or
pircsl4.agron.iastate.edu

They are the same machine.



Ideally, iita will fail to this machine, but it is Friday, and we have
not heard from iita.rap so it would be prudent to fail to a known data
source.

This does not impact your choice of failover for NNEXRAD, but you may want
to monitor your feed if you can because we will be hitting sunshine pretty
hard this weekend, hence the last choice for failover for NNEXRAD.

Thank you,

-Jeff
