Gilbert,

> So, if the backup has no backup feeds, my LDM won't fail over?

I'm afraid that I don't understand the question.

I'm saying that the LDM system on host noaaport.admin.niu.edu was running based 
on a configuration-file that did not have a REQUEST entry for data from the LDM 
on host idd.unidata.ucar.edu. Consequently, when the feed from 131.156.129.136 
went down, there was no feed from idd.unidata.ucar.edu to take over. When the 
LDM was restarted based on a configuration-file that had the missing REQUEST 
entry, data started flowing from idd.unidata.ucar.edu to noaaport.admin.niu.edu.

I suspect that you added the entry sometime after the LDM was started but 
forgot to restart the LDM. Thus, the REQUEST entry for data from 
idd.unidata.ucar.edu was in the configuration-file but was after-the-fact for 
the running LDM.

Been there. Done that. Bought the tee-shirt. :-)
