Judging from the timestamps of the log messages and the timestamp of the data-products, you're receiving the data you want within seconds of its being created. I erred by specifying the "KMOB" identifier instead of "KTLH" in my example commands because the "KMOB" entry in the pqact(1) configuration- file is commented-out. I assume, however, that you're receiving the "KTLH" data-products but that they aren't being filed. Are there any relevant log message from the pqact(1) process in the LDM log file? I notice that you have the pqact(1) process in verbose logging mode. Does it indicate that it sees the relevant data-products? > (these are big files so I have just attached the last 9 or 10 lines.) > So at least it does appear that that the data is coming in OK. > However, I double checked after this and still no files are being saved. > Thanks, > Colin Regards, Steve Emmerson Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: ZMC-587082 Department: Support LDM Priority: Normal Status: Closed
