OK.

I logged into aeolus as soon as I saw your email.  I did the following
and the LDM appears to be running normally:

<as 'ldm'>
ldmadmin clean
ldmadmin start

I will continue to monitor this for a short while to make sure that
it continues to run.  FYI, I will simply keep a 'less' going on the
~ldm/logs/aeolus.uptime log file and watch the number of connections
columns:
                                    Downstream (# aeolus is feeding)
                                    |   Upstream (# aeolus is requesting from)
                                    |   |   Total

re:
> I see one large cpu job called pqcat but I don't know what that is doing?

'pqcat' is used to copy products out of the LDM queue and can be useful
if one is trying to see exactly where products are being received from.
Why this would be running on your system is not known to me.

Cheers,

Tom
