By the way, cessna is a Dell Precision WorkStation 410 with two 450MHz Pentium II processors and 512MB of DRAM running Debian 2.1 / Linux 2.0.36. It's connected to our computer room Ethernet switch directly, at 10Mbps. It's not doing much else besides LDM stuff at the moment; the load is basically unnoticeable with plenty of free memory. Is this thing pulling all the data we normally pull to the IITA host? cessna:~# vmstat 5 5 procs memory swap io system cpu r b w swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy id 0 0 0 24 8504 391040 52788 0 0 91 21 183 189 1 3 96 0 0 0 24 8504 391040 52788 0 0 0 11 132 67 1 1 99 0 0 0 24 8504 391040 52788 0 0 0 3 137 85 1 1 98 0 0 0 24 8504 391040 52788 0 0 0 0 109 21 1 0 99 0 0 0 24 8504 391040 52788 0 0 0 2 139 97 2 0 98 -- Tres Hofmeister <address@hidden> http://www.rap.ucar.edu/staff/tres/ Research Applications Program National Center for Atmospheric Research
