Re: LDM at Riverside Fire Weather Office

Scott,

According to top the machine appears to be cpu bound, maybe even a run
away netscape process 1957. Also, I notice that there are many pqact
entries with         FILE    -overwrite -strip   parts.  These cause high
disk usage.  It looks like some gempak decoders were running too. Also you
are feeding downstream sites. I would comment out the
pqact entry in the ldmd.conf and try running the system. Also, it was
impossible to search the syslog.log over the network. There are
instructions on creating ldmd.log files, at:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/ldm/ldmPreInstallList.html#s8

It's much easier to debug a system that been set up according to the ldmd
conventions.

When you remedy these problems then lets see if the ldm exits?
