Hi Chengfang,

Do you have the THREDDS Data Server (TDS) installed? The TDS is
described here (http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/THREDDS/tech/#TDS)
with links to the war file and further documentation.

From the main TDS documentation
(http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/docs/), the "Getting Started"
page (http://motherlode.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/docs/GettingStarted.html)
is probably the best place to start.

Once you have the TDS installed, the main catalog resides at
${tomcat_home}/content/thredds/catalog.xml. Other catalogs can reside in
that directory or subdirectories but they all have to be linked by
catalogRef from the main catalog.xml. Any of these catalogs can contain
datasetScan elements.

Hope that helps. Let me know if you need further assistance.

Ethan
