Interesting!

OK, that is the same version of 2009 that I tested on here (along with v2014).

I just looked through the README file that details changes in Unidata McIDAS-X
versions, and I see the following changes implemented in v2009o from v2009n:

20130515: Unidata McIDAS-X/-XCD v2009o

          VERSION.TXT           - UPC v2009o version

Given that all of the changes were related to METEOSAT imagery, this must
be the cause of the problems you are seeing on fsoc1.

re:
> Which 2009 version are you running?

v2009q and v2014.

re:
> I can update my mcidas on fsoc1 to 2009q and see what happens then.

That should fix the current problem.

Very good.

Even though upgrading to the latest 2009 release should fix your problem, I will
still login mainly to grab your NOAAPort ingest stats (I did not login last 
night).

re:
> Thanks for your help!!

No worries.

Cheers,

Tom
