Re: [conduit] Large lags on CONDUIT feed - started a week or so ago

With the conduit request split into 10 threads for this morning's 12Z data, I 
think there was some improvement, though not conclusive. Our delay peaked at 
about 2200 seconds which was much better than yesterday, but about the same as 
on the 10th.  However, I think the delays today at other sites were worse than 
the recent average, which is why I think it was an improvement .


A traceroute shows our connection going through Chicago 
(rtsw.chic.net.internet2.edu) with an RTT of about 16 ms and then through 
Ashburn (rtsw.ashb.net.internet2.edu) with an RTT of about 32 ms, and finally 
into the Max Gigapop (clpk-core.maxgigapop.net) with an RTT of about 34 ms.  
Anyone follow a similar route to this that you could share some times on?

Thanks Carissa.


Pete, I was running a single request until recently, but split it into 5 a 
couple weeks ago with the results I reported below.  I'll try 10 and see if 
that helps further.  It's been my experience that when the latencies go bad, 
they are usually worse getting to us than other sites, not sure why.  Perhaps 
the route, or proximity to I2 backbone...?  Things had been great for months 
until approximately February 10th, give or take a few days.  Since then, the 
latencies have been terrible.

Hi Everyone

I’ve added the Dataflow team email to the thread. I haven’t heard that any 
changes were made or that any issues were found. But the team can look today 
and see if we have any signifiers of overall slowness with anything.

Dataflow, try taking a look at the new Citrix or VM troubleshooting tools if 
there are any abnormal signatures that may explain this.

Art,

I don't know if NCEP ever figured anything out, but I've been able to keep my 
latencies reasonable (300-600s max, mostly during the 12 UTC model suite) by 
splitting my CONDUIT request 10 ways, instead of the 5 that I had been doing, 
or in a single request. Maybe give that a try and see if it helps at all.

Pete

Holly,


Was there any resolution to this on the NCEP end?  I'm still seeing terrible 
delays (1000-4000 seconds) receiving data from 
conduit.ncep.noaa.gov<https://nam01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fconduit.ncep.noaa.gov&data=02%7C01%7Caap1%40psu.edu%7C6baff6a41c08430ed0a908d6a6f62672%7C7cf48d453ddb4389a9c1c115526eb52e%7C0%7C0%7C636879973476000094&sdata=MYN3gmr%2FBp87iCTQDO1tHbt6k6Fxo6nVlauFrAIJI0I%3D&reserved=0>.
  It would be helpful to know if things are resolved at NCEP's end so I know 
whether to look further down the line.

Hi Pete,

We'll take a look and see if we can figure out what might be going on.  We 
haven't done anything to try and address this yet, but based on your analysis 
I'm suspicious that it might be tied to a resource constraint on the VM or the 
blade it resides on.

Thanks,

Data is flowing again - picked up somewhere in the GEFS. Maybe CONDUIT server 
was restarted, or ldm on it? Lags are large (3000s+) but dropping slowly

Just a quick follow-up - we started falling far enough behind (3600+ sec) that 
we are losing data. We got short files starting at 174h into the GFS run, and 
only got (incomplete) data through 207h.

We have now not received any data on CONDUIT since 11:27 AM CST (1727 UTC) 
today (Wed Feb 20)

Subject: [conduit] Large lags on CONDUIT feed - started a week or so ago

Carissa,

We have been feeding CONDUIT using a 5 way split feed direct from 
conduit.ncep.noaa.gov<https://nam01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fconduit.ncep.noaa.gov&data=02%7C01%7Caap1%40psu.edu%7C6baff6a41c08430ed0a908d6a6f62672%7C7cf48d453ddb4389a9c1c115526eb52e%7C0%7C0%7C636879973476030109&sdata=3j7LsB3xS8oFN6srf4TT42rEI8NMGO2nqm9%2B23p1frk%3D&reserved=0>,
 and it had been really good for some time, lags 30-60 seconds or less.

However, the past week or so, we've been seeing some very large lags during 
each 6 hour model suite - Unidata is also seeing these - they are also feeding 
direct from 
conduit.ncep.noaa.gov<https://nam01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fconduit.ncep.noaa.gov&data=02%7C01%7Caap1%40psu.edu%7C6baff6a41c08430ed0a908d6a6f62672%7C7cf48d453ddb4389a9c1c115526eb52e%7C0%7C0%7C636879973476040123&sdata=j%2F%2BcEiJLPGDoNr3WaNnRUss4JIcaqN7uWvjXHtCXhYM%3D&reserved=0>.
