We have not seen any notifications related to the NEXRAD2 feed from NOAA,
and the flows out of our IDD relay clusters appears to be ioeratibg normall.

Given the NEXRAD2 latency plots for randomly chosen real-servers backends of
the Iddb.unidata.ucar.edu cluster, which is housed in the main machine room at
the NCAR Mesa Lab, I would have said that the high latencies your monitoring
is showing would be worse, not better than nodes in the idd.unidata.ucar.edu
cluster, which is housed in the NCAR Wyoming Supercomputer Center in Cheyenne,
WY. It could be that the products from stations whose high latencies were/are
triggering your alarms are not being inserted in the LDM queues on the IDDB
cluster backends, so your monitoring would not show them as being abnormally
high since they are never received.
I just checked the indicated NEXRAD2 latencies on the three accumulators
(the machines that make the REQUEST to upstreams) of our clusters, and
one is showing very high latencies for the NEXRAD2 feed while the other
two are not. Exactly why this is happening is not known at the moment,
but we will investigate.
Given the redundant feed REQUESTs that all of the backends of our clusters
have, it is most likely that the high latencies being seen are coming from
this one accumulator (oliver.unidata.ucar.edu), and those products may well
be "second trip" products, which is how we refer to products that are received
more than once but late enough that they are not ignored by the LDM duplicate
product detection and rejection mechanism.
Again, further investigations will be made...
Cheers,
Tom
