Baudouin, > Does that mean that all ldm must be upgraded at the same time? Not because of the LDM, itself. In the LDM system, the MD5 signature is computed only once, when the data-product is created. Thereafter, the signature is only used by the LDM system to determine if the data-product is already in the product-queue. Consequently, changing the procedure by which it's created only affect the system that's creating the data-product. If, however, the MD5 signature is used by processes outside the LDM -- such as an ancillary process that verifies reception of data-products -- then, yes, that and similar processes would have to know about the new procedure for computing the MD5 signature.
