Since we are not receiving real time statistics from you, I would guess that you never added the needed 'exec' line into the the ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf file on cacimbo. Here is the line that is needed: exec "rtstats -h rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu" This should be the last 'exec' line in your ldmd.conf file. After making this change, you will need to stop and restart your LDM to make the change active: ldmadmin stop ldmadmin start If this line is already in your ldmd.conf file with no errors, it means that your firewall may be setup to not allow traffic from your LDM to machines in the unidata.ucar.edu domain. I mention this since we can not do an ldmping from machines in our domain to cacimbo: % ldmping cacimbo.ggy.uga.edu Jul 03 19:22:31 State Elapsed Port Remote_Host rpc_stat Jul 03 19:22:41 SVC_UNAVAIL 10.012004 0 cacimbo.ggy.uga.edu h_clnt_create(cacimbo.ggy.uga.edu): Timed out while creating connection If there is a firewall configuration issue, we would appreciate you contacting your network/sysadmin folks to allow the connection (bidirectionally if possible). The real time statistics reported back by rtstats allow us to closely monitor the health of the IDD and make changes if, when, and where needed. Thanks in advance... Tom
