[LDM #LYE-352040]: Do you have some troubleshooting time?

Hi Gerry,

So done :-)

Have you reviewed the LDM log files on the idd.tamu.edu cluster real servers?
If yes, what do they indicate?

OK.  The LDM should install and run normally in a non-'ldm' account.

This sounds like a SELINUX-related issue.

re:

This sounds like a 'pqact' pattern-action issue.

re:
> A notifyme to ldm.tamu.edu does show data availability.

Excellent.  A 'notifyme' that shows data on the upstream confirms that
there is an ALLOW on the upstream that permits the local machine to request
data.  The receipt of data shown in an 'ldmadmin watch' verifies that
the data is making it to your LDM.  The fact that output files are not
being written to disk indicates some sort of a pattern-action file
problem.

re:
> I'm pretty confused.

Join the crowd :-)

re:

I am in my office for pretty much the rest of the day today.  You can
call me at 303.497.8642 if you want.

Cheers,
