Hi Bob, Sorry for the slow reply... re: > I hope this is the right place to send this to... I was accessing the > RTGOESR dataset off lead.unidata.ucar.edu earlier on, and now it seems > to be down. Are you aware of this? We were alerted when the load average climbed to above 70 (!). There were LOTS of McIDAS ABI server abinaget processes running, so we can safely say that the ADDE serving was associated with the high load average. Whether or not it was the cause of the high load average is still unknown. re: > Any idea of when it might be back up? Its been back up for quite a while now. Comment: - currently we provide GRB-delivered GOES-16 ABI imagery and NOAAPort-delivered SCMI imagery on two motherlode class servers: lead.unidata.ucar.edu atm.ucar.edu If you find that one server is unresponsive, you should switch to using the other - in the not too distant future, we will be serving GRB and NOAAPort GOES-16 imagery on two more machines: adde.ucar.edu adde.ssec.wisc.edu Cheers, Tom -- **************************************************************************** Unidata User Support UCAR Unidata Program (303) 497-8642 P.O.
