Hi Dave,

The LDM doesn't know how to split data-products.  You'd have to write a decoder 
to do that, and an appropriate entry in the pqact(1) configuration-file, 
execute the command "ldmadmin pqactHUP", and then add the file to the LDM 
product-queue via the pqinsert(1) utility.

I hope this helps.
