Hi Mike,

Quick note:

I just modified (again) the webpage that has example actions for the
MRMS products that will be added to the FNEXRAD feed:

- I added '<tab>-close<tab>-overwrite' to each FILE action

The '-close' flag to FILE will help limit the number of open file
descriptors.  The '-overwrite' flag will insure that only one product
will be written to each file written.

Comment:

The TDS actions for the MRMS products are quite different - new products
are purposefully appended to existing files which are then used to
create collections.  I have the feeling that your use would be more
like the example actions that I came up with, but I just thought that
I'd let you know about a totally different approach.


Cheers,

Tom
