Hi Alex,

OK. I have just configured yakov.unidata.ucar.edu to request
all products in the SPARE data feed from mopora.cptec.inpe.br:
entries from yakov's ~ldm/logs/ldmd.log file:

OK.

If they are put in the SPARE feedtype, my request will get them.

Based on the data transfer tests that I ran with NCAR and ECMWF, I
am also worried about the bandwith to/from CPTEC. I am suspicious
that there may be some sort of artificial limiting of the data flow.
My suspicion is based on the difference in the ability of moingobe
to ingest low volume data feeds like IDS|DDPLUS and high volume
datafeeds like CONDUIT.
moingobe IDS|DDPLUS latencies:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/iddstats_nc?IDS|DDPLUS+moingobe.cptec.inpe.br
moingobe CONDUIT latencies:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/iddstats_nc?CONDUIT+moingobe.cptec.inpe.br
If the cause of high CONDUIT latencies was limited bandwidth, then
we should see a similar rise in latencies in IDS|DDPLUS during the
peak of CONDUIT transfers, but we do NOT see this pattern. Instead,
the latencies seen remain very low for low volume feeds and increase
as a function of the volume of the feed. Our experience is that
this kind of pattern is caused by artificial volume limiting which
we generically refer to as "packet shaping".
So, if there really is packet shaping being done in the flows to
CPTEC, who is doing it? We need to find out who is doing the volume
flow limiting and work with them to get it removed. The first step
in this process is someone at CPTEC (Waldenio?) working with the
CPTEC IT group to make sure that they are not the cause. If they
are not, perhaps they can help to find out who is doing the volume
limiting.

No worries.
