Hi Heather, re: > Thanks again Tom! I really appreciate all of the work you have > done to help set up our new systems! No worries. re: > I would love to have your tcl script running on our ingestor. Very good. re: > You can either send it to me via email or put it on yourself, > whatever is easiest for you. I did the following on npingest yesterday evening and this morning: - installed Tcl and Tk <as 'root'> yum install tcl tk - copied over the latest Novra 'cmcs' version and put it in the ~ldm/util directory (which I also created) - deleted the copy of 'cmcs' that was in ~ldm - in ~ldm/util created the shell scripts: NovraS300 - it runs 'cmcs' providing the IP address of your S300 and PW novras300.tcl - it writes S300 and SES-1 info - created cron entries for 'ldm' that: - rotate the LDM log file once per day - run util/novras300.tcl once per minute - tweaked entries in ~ldm/etc/registry.xml I am trying to figure out why you are getting the [GB 1] errors. You can now see minute-by-minute values for things like C/N, signal strength symbol rate, etc. by 'less ~ldm/logs/novras300.log'. This should be helpful in monitoring your NOAAPort ingest. Comment: - I saw remnants of the old NOAAPort 1.7 ingest package in ~ldm: drwxrwxr-x. 10 ldm ldm 4096 Sep 11 11:52 noaaport-1.7.1 -rw-rw-r--. 1 ldm ldm 2702652 Sep 11 11:26 noaaport-1.7.1.tar.gz Since the NOAAPort ingest code is now part of the LDM, I _strongly_ recommend that you get rid of the old ** hopefully unused ** code so there will not be confusion going into the future.
