>From: Clint Rowe <address@hidden> >Organization: University of Nebraska Geosciences >Keywords: 200503070449.j274n2v2001291 IDD LDM pqcat Morning Clint, re: LDM queue size >That's strange, because I know I increased the queue size to 2GB >previously. The upgrade to LDM 6.2.0 required that an new file ~ldm/etc/ldmadmin-pl.conf be edited and $pq_size be set. I honestly can't remember if I upgraded papagayo to 6.2.0, so the failure to edit ldmadmin-pl.conf may be my fault. Regardless of who forgot to edit the file, the queue size would not come into play until it was necessary to remake it. This was the situation when the machine crashed and the queue got corrupted. >Even stranger, when I went to stop the pqcat, I first decided to stop >the ldm. When I did that, I noticed that the queue was begin built, >apparently because the ldm startup script (in /etc/init.d) was being >run. Sorry. I forgot that this would happen when you killed the pqcat invocation, so I forgot to warn you. >I've stopped everything, rebuilt the queue and restarted. Data >are flowing (including NIMAGE). Sounds good. >I've copied Pete to let him know we're >back up and to make sure he has me as the contact. Ditto on sounding good. >Why the machine rebooted is still unknown. OK. >PS by the way, I seem to be getting two copies of all the community >announcements -- can you check to see if there is a second entry for >me (the best one to use for me is address@hidden). I found two entries in our allcommunity email list, address@hidden and address@hidden. Since composite lists like community are created from other lists, and since I see that you are subscribed to different lists using different email addresses (e.g., conduit as address@hidden and others as address@hidden), the double mailing will return unless all addresses are changed. Given this, I have just changed all of your list subscriptions to address@hidden (you owe me one ;-).
