I noticed that the data flowing in and out of thelma had dropped significantly from normal levels (this url is reachable from inside the security perimeter only - launch a browser from motherlode); http://netstat.ucar.edu/~cricket/cricket/grapher.cgi?target=%2Fcatalysts%2Fml-mr-c2-gs%2FSlot_5%2Fport_1;ranges=d%3Aw%3Am%3Ay;view=Octets and the load average on thelma was between 20 and 30. I stopped the LDM, moved the queue to ldm.pq- for later inspection, created a new queue (mkqueue -f) and started the LDM again. mike On Jul 25, 9:10am, Internet Data Distribution wrote: > Subject: thelma ldmping success > Thu Jul 25 09:10:00 MDT 2002 >-- End of excerpt from Internet Data Distribution
