Hi Massimiliano, There isn't currently a way to configure the TDS aggregation dataset access patterns. However, we would like to keep the data access limited to the datasets required to satisfy the query. So, we will look into this and see what we can do. Could you send us three days worth of the datasets behind your nested aggregation that we can use to debug this? Or you could add a dataset to your configuration that serves the individual files using an HTTPServer service element: <service name="fileServer" serviceType="HTTPServer" base="/thredds/fileServer/" /> and we can grab a few days worth of sample files.
