[Datastream #IZJ-689237]: Additional Datafeeds

Hi Jeff,

Oops, three typos: this should have been:

<as 'root'>
cd /usr/lib64
cp ~ldm/decoders5.11.4/libgfortran.so.3.0.0 .
ln -s libgfortran.so.3.0.0 libgfortran.so.3

I just corrected the link in /usr/lib64 on whistler.

I just (re)did this on whistler:

<as 'ldm'>
ldmadmin stop
cd ~/decoders5.11.4
cp dcacft dcmetr dcmsfc dcgrib2 ~/decoders      <- the 5.11.1 version were 
already backed-up

cd ~/data/gempak/logs
rm *.log*
~/util/dcrotatelog.csh

ldmadmin start

Because of my three typos noted above.  I apologize for this!

Whistler is now running the 5.11.4 versions of dcacft, dcmetr, dcmsfc, and 
dcgrib2
quite happily (meaning no errors noted in ~ldm/logs/ldmd.log).  We will see
the results of this test as data rolls in.

OK.  This gives something to look for-on/compare-to other 64-bit RedHat
Enterprise Linux systems.

Yes, quite possibly.

Many thanks for this!  This will help identify and hopefully correct problems
as fast as possible (like correcting the link to libgfortran.so.3.0.0 in
/usr/lib64).


> Thanks again for all the help.

No worries.

Cheers,

Tom
