That’s the pypies server. I’m asking about the :9581/services edex-request
server.

I need to update my Unidata install – my old 14.2.1 cave.sh had only
“/awips2/cave/run.sh -alertviz -perspective NC”

Does the current Unidata version of the EDEX thrift server support compression
as well?
Yes, using mod_deflate.c. In /awips2/httpd_pypies/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
DeflateFilterNote Input instream
DeflateFilterNote Output outstream
DeflateFilterNote Ratio ratio
LogFormat '%t "%r" %{outstream}n/%{instream}n (%{ratio}n%%)' deflate
CustomLog logs/compression_log deflate
</IfModule>
and compression stats are logged to
/awips2/httpd_pypies/var/log/httpd/compression_log
Whether you could run CAVE with both ‘-alertviz’ and ‘-component thinclient’
options variously worked or broke over many different releases. Sometimes it
even varied between Windows and Linux builds in the same release, so last I
heard the combination was not officially supported.
Unidata CAVE for Linux is run with default command line options "-alertviz
-component thinclient" since July 2015, and I have disabled the JMS connection
functionality in the connectivity preferences dialog.
The question is if the Unidata build supports those few extra features of
thin_client mode that eke out that last little bit of network performance
(thrift compression, “use cache only” options, don’t connect JMS, etc) and if
they are worth supporting.
Yes, the Unidata build supports all of this.
NWS CAVE to Unidata EDEX and vice-versa has never worked for me. Now that
Unidata has a MacOS client, there is not yet a common EDEX that can serve all
of Linux, MacOS, Windows.
Some users have reported success connecting NWS CAVE to Unidata EDEX, but such
use is not supported by either Unidata or NWS.
