If by "low" you mean "small", then that's what I expect because your maximum acceptable latency parameter is 600 seconds rather than the usual 3600 seconds. Consequently, your downstream LDM processes reject all incoming data-products with latencies above 600 seconds. If you want to change that, then execute the command "regutil -u <<max-latency>> /server/max-latency", where <<max-latency>> is the maximum latency you're willing to accept in seconds. Then, wait for the size of the queue to be automatically adjusted by "ldmadmin check" if you have "/reconciliation-mode" set to "increase queue"; otherwise, you'll get the warning message you've already seen. > ******************************************************************************* > Gilbert Sebenste ******** > (My opinions only!) ****** > Staff Meteorologist, Northern Illinois University **** > E-mail: address@hidden *** > web: http://weather.admin.niu.edu ** > ******************************************************************************* > > Regards, Steve Emmerson Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: TMA-441215 Department: Support LDM Priority: Normal Status: Closed
