Yes, I noticed you were low..that is why I asked you to watch the disk if
you started up the ldm.


 Did you by chance recieve any packages to the /var/data/* dir?

Only if you do not want to run the ldm..:)

That is your queue, where the data goes..


 And could you tell me what

Look in pqact.conf, you will see one entry, for WMO products..This is the
action that is filing the data in the dirs in question, you can set it up
however you like...the one included is a "standard" configuration.

Via your pqact.conf entry....

I think I read

Yes..

Do you mean feed types?

No!


Please see:

http://unidata.ucar.edu/packages/ldm/feedtypes/index.html

You are currently requesting UNIDATA which comprises of:

UNIDATA = FT0 | FT1 | FT2 | FT3 | FT5
Predefined feed set name for PPS,
DDS, HDS, IDS, or MCIDAS.



I urge you to read through the workshop presentation, I think it will
answer many of your questions..
