Hi Don, re: > OU recently has surfaced an issue with latency out of the NEXRAD Level > II feed from RDS here in Norman. With very few enterprise tools > available outside in the real world, I turned to the LDM feed tree as a > barometer (I couldn't resist the weather reference) of Level II > dissemination performance. :-) re: > The TDS in Silver Spring had ERC, Purdue, & OU and the RDS (likely due > to it's performance ONLY showed OU hanging on with massive performance > issues. (Others had given up.) While I understand this behavior, I also > noticed Unidata did not show up as pulling from either source. LDMpings > show EMO & Oliver are still connected, but the tree doesn't show data > flow from either source to either client. The NEXRAD2 REQUESTs that we have on oliver and emo are currently: oliver.unidata.ucar.edu: request NEXRAD2 ".*" lion.caps.ou.edu request NEXRAD2 "(.*)" nws-ldm1.hpcc.ercbroadband.org request NEXRAD2 "(((.*)))" 140.172.24.16 request NEXRAD2 "((((.*))))" 140.90.73.177 emo.unidata.ucar.edu request NEXRAD2 ".*" lion.caps.ou.edu request NEXRAD2 "(.*)" nws-ldm1.hpcc.ercbroadband.org request NEXRAD2 "(((.*)))" 140.172.24.16 request NEXRAD2 "((((.*))))" 140.90.73.177 Please let us know the IP address and/or fully-qualified hostnames for the top level NOAA sites we should be REQUESTing from, and we will update our REQUESTs accordingly. re: > Is there an issue I can assist with? Please remind us of the IP address and/or fully-qualified names for the NOAA top level NEXRAD2 relays. re: > My concern with OU as the ONLY client on the RDS makes it difficult to > determine if I'm the issue or if OU is having an issue locally. As RDS > performance improves, OU latency has gone down, ERC & Perdue have > returned but EMO & Oliver have not. > > Please advise... See above.
