Hi, re: > We subscribe to the Unidata Level II NEXRAD feed via LDM and we stopped > getting > data around 1750UTC. We can no longer connect to the Unidata servers (idd or > iddb). The facility that houses the machines that comprise the iddb.unidata.ucar.edu cluster experienced a power outage at 11:42 MDT at this time. ETA for return of power is unknown. The facility that houses the machines that comprise the idd.unidata.ucar.edu cluster is _not_ experiencing any power problems, and I just checked accessibility from a machine at the University of Wisconsin's Space Science and Engineering Center in Madison, WI, and it can connect to idd.unidata.ucar.edu with no problems. re: > We were just wondering if an IP address has changed by any chance? Or is the > NEXRAD network having problems delivering the data? There should not be a problem connecting to idd.unidata.ucar.edu. What are the results of the following run from the 'ldm' account on one of your machines: notifyme -vl- -f ANY -h idd.unidata.ucar.edu reL > (We are simultaneously pursuing possible problems with network people at our > end.) Again, iddb.unidata.ucar.edu is not accessible due to a power outage at the NCAR Mesa Lab where the cluster is housed. idd.unidata.ucar.edu should be accessible to your notifyme and/or feed REQUEST(s).
