Hi Carl,

The most likely thing is that GOES-17 has been operating in Mode 6
recently, so your LDM pattern-action file action(s) may not be
processing the products if they are overly constrained.
For reference, representative LDM/IDD Product IDs taken from a snapshot
a few minutes ago are:
/data/cspp-geo/WEST/OR_ABI-L1b-RadC-M6C14_G17_s20190522016196_e20190522018569_c20190522019011.nc
/data/cspp-geo/WEST/OR_ABI-L1b-RadF-M6C14_G17_s20190522010341_e20190522019407_c20190522019461.nc
/data/cspp-geo/WEST/OR_ABI-L1b-RadM1-M6C03_G17_s20190522018275_e20190522018332_c20190522018367.nc
/data/cspp-geo/WEST/OR_ABI-L1b-RadM2-M6C08_G17_s20190522014575_e20190522015032_c20190522015071.nc
The part of the Product ID that indicates the satellite's operating mode
is the M6 just after the coverage part:
RadC-M6
RadF-M6
RadM1-M6
RadM2-M6
If your pattern-action file action(s) specify a particular mode like mode 3/M3,
then they will not match the Product IDs when the satellite is operating
in mode 6. The same thing will be true when the satellite is operated
in mode 4, but when that is the case, there will be no CONUS or Mesoscale
scans.
Here is a quick overview of the ABI images that are to be sent in
the three modes that either/both GOES-16 and GOES-17 can be operated
in:
Mode 3:
CONUS - every 5 minutes
Full Disk - every 15 minutes
Mesoscale-1 - either every minute or every 30 seconds
Mesoscale-2 - either every minute or every 30 seconds
NB: if one of the Mesoscale sectors is issued every 30 seconds,
the other Mesoscale sector will stop being sent
Mode 4:
Full Disk - every 5 minutes
Mode 6:
CONUS - every 5 minutes
Full Disk - every 10 minutes
Mesoscale-1 - either every minute or every 30 seconds
Mesoscale-2 - either every minute or every 30 seconds
NB: if one of the Mesoscale sectors is issued every 30 seconds,
the other Mesoscale sector will stop being sent
Please check your LDM pattern-action file action(s) to see if
the extended regular expression is overly constrained to a
particular operating mode of the satellite.
Cheers,
Tom
