Data-products will not be removed from the product-queue if they are
locked.  Products are locked when they are being inserted into the 
queue and also when they are being read from the queue.  It is possible
that a process (e.g., upstream LDM, pqact(1)) has a read-lock on the
product in question and the processing of the product is taking a very
long time.

You should be able to use the pqact(1) utility to discover the 
metadata of the product in question.  For example:

    pqact -vl- -o 2584255 >/dev/null

Steve Emmerson
