>From: Eirh-Yu Hsie <address@hidden> >Organization: Aeronomy Laboratory/NOAA >Keywords: 200406091516.i59FGvtK029618 IDD Hsie, >Thanks for switching me over th emo. Again, I apologize for not making sure that rainbow was getting data. This was a mistake I made while I was scrambling to reduce the load on the replacement thelma (load average was at 161+). >I never know who is my altertive >site for LDM feed. Righ now, do you want me to feed from thelma or emo?? I see that the feeds you request from thelma have caught up: IDS|DDPLUS http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/iddstats_nc?IDS|DDPLUS+rainbow.al.noaa.gov NNEXRAD http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/iddstats_nc?NNEXRAD+rainbow.al.noaa.gov CONDUIT http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/iddstats_nc?CONDUIT+rainbow.al.noaa.gov Given this, and given that the load on the replacement thelma is manageable at the moment, you can stay feeding from thelma. If the load on the replacemnt thelma climbs too high, I will ask you to move back to emo. For your information: we will be doing a reorganization of machines used to feed data out of UCAR. It is likely that I will ask you to feed from a machine different from thelma in the not too distant future. Since the switchover will be made in the full light of day (;-), it will be less likely that you will go without data for so long. Once again, my apologies.
