Hi Tyler,
Do your log files show your LDM switching feeds when data starts flowing
again?
I can't seem to fully resolve it, but the newer LDM seems to get confused
when you have multiple hosts feeding you the same data types without
specifying PRIMARY ALTERNATE. I dunno, I'm running into all sorts of strange
LDM things lately :(
Daryl,
No such problem here for one of my feeds, which, for right now, is running
just a primary site because I am testing a feed. BTW, if you upgraded to
LDM 6.6.2, are you having problems with things not writing to
disk correctly? Or not at all? Check this out:

And then this:

Many of the radar products I make on my website run from a script that
calls that LDM entry above. As it turns out, in LDM 6, it means that the
code that determines the canonical time of a product was not written
correctly. It also means that your pqact entries using them may be wrong.
I'm guessing that's your problem, as stuff has mysteriously stopped coming
in or being saved. That's what happened to me when I upgraded to 6.6.2.
But 6.6.2 IS correct on how to do it, which means I am now seeing things
work the way they should.
BTW, if you are doing a PRIMARY and ALTERNATE to a specific data feed, the
lines, except for the site you are feeding from, have to match EXACTLY.
Otherwise, it will feed both feeds from both sites.
