[Datastream #SCB-883101]: Information about Frank's data

Hi Marcial,

re:
> How are you? It's been a while!

I am well, thank you.  How are you?

Yes, it has been a long while since we talked...

re:

I just tried to SSH to both frankenstein.ucr.ac.cr and igor.ucr.ac.cr
and was unsuccessful.  I made the SSH attempts from laraine.unidata.ucar.edu
(128.117.140.62).

This makes me happy also!  Has igor been working well?

To learn about what is availble in NOAAPORT, you should do some Google (tm)
searches to find the appropriate NOAA web pages.  As far as IDD datastreams
that are not related to NOAAPORT (the UNIWISC (aka MCIDAS) datastream
for example), you can look through the data pages on our website:

Frankenstein should get the majority of its data from igor, and igor is
ingesting the NOAAPORT datastream from NOAA.  I just checked the volume
of data that frankenstein is receiving, and it is _much_ less than
it should get from a NOAAPORT ingester _IF_ it is requesting all of the
data from the NOAAPORT ingester.

Compare the data volumes being received on the Unidata LINUX NOAAPORT
ingest machine, jackie.unidata.ucar.edu, with that received on frankenstein:

NIMAGE feed being received on frankenstein:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/iddstats_vol_nc?NIMAGE+frankenstein.ucr.ac.cr

Questions:

- is frankenstein still configured to receive all of the data that igor
  is ingesting?

- is the data ingest on igor working properly?

If the NOAAPORT ingest is working correctly on igor, and if frankenstein
is requesting all of the HDS data from igor, then frankenstein will have
GFS data in the HDS stream.  If you are talking about the high resolution
GFS data, I have to tell you that I don't think that the network connection
to UCR is good enough to handle the data.

> Thank you for your help, and again sorry for taking some of your time.

You are welcome, and please don't worry about asking questions!

I would like to be able to login to igor and frankenstein, so any
help you can give that will allow this to happen will be most appreciated.

> PD: Say hello to your wife, Atilio and Abbi.

I will say hello to Cathy, Attilio, and Abby for you!

Cheers,

Tom
