well first off treat your RAID as a single drive since I think thats what
you told me last time we talked. So in otherwords its just another SCSI
drive. the IDE drives could be where the bottleneck is, since they are
slower than your SCSI more than likely. Also your IDE is probably running
from the mainboard instead of a seperate IDE controller card. Since i'm
not an expert on LDM, i'm just making a wild guess that your getting data
to your drives faster than they can handle and the pipe to them can't
handle it anymore and then start timing out. just a wild random guess.,
back to doing slideshow production now before bed :)

Weather3 is back up and running, and feeding weather2 at this time.
At this point, I think I have a good idea of what is happening, as well as
NOT knowing what is happening.
Whenever I set the LDM queue to 400 MB (by default), it doesn't like it.
Set it under 300 MB...and it is happy.
This is happening on weather2 and weather3, even though they are
identical but separate machines. With 1.5 GB of RAM and 250 GB disk
space...hmmm. Weird. Yet, this is not happening on weather, with 80 GB
disk space and 2 GB RAM. Weather2 and Weather3 have IDE drives; Weather
has SCSI with a RAID.
You tell me what's wrong. I dunno. In any case, with the lower queue,
weather3 seems to be stable. Let me give it one more day to make sure.
Otherwise, weather2 is humming along fine. Keep feeding from that.
