Thanks John, I stand corrected.

Thanks John, that's certainly one part of the puzzle. I appreciate it.

I know that each sector takes a certain amount of time to complete, so I could sleep for x minutes after the receipt

of the e-mail but maybe there is a better way to actually
determine when the image is finished?

     No need, really.  The GVAR server 'tracks' by which we mean
it synchronizes with the incoming data.  So an imgcopy or imgdisp

started at the beginning of an image will finish when the last necessary line is available at the ingestor, or a second or two later. Any waiting you do would slow the totality of the process down more than necessary, since the server slows itself down just enough.
