>From: "Eric.J.Haug" <address@hidden> >Organization: Saint Louis University >Keywords: 200408181744.i7IHinaW023438 IDD LDM rtstats Hi Eric, re: This is bad. >I presume you mean bad with respect to IDD >(Good for us, data is available on zephir) Bad meaning that if you are feeding from your NOAAPORT ingest box AND from the IDD, then you will be running decoding processes twice for each product. This can be very bad when the same decoder is trying to write to the same output file more than once at the same time. re: They will. This is how we used to power the IDD. >Is there a URL: for how the new way works somewhere? No, not yet. Up to this point this has been used only at the UPC, so we had no real need to create web-based documentation for what we did. We will, however, be creating a web page of what we did to get our DVB-S NOAAPORT ingest up and working. The code used in that project will be freely available, but it will _not_ be a supported product (big boy warranty). re: timeframe for getting your NOAAPORT system to play nice with the IDD >I/we are not in any hurry. OK, sounds good. Cheers, Tom -- NOTE: All email exchanges with Unidata User Support are recorded in the Unidata inquiry tracking system and then made publically available through the web.
