Hi Luis,
I am not sure if you are the appropriate person at the UPRM to send
this note to, but ...
Several weeks ago I sent a note to the Unidata-maintained mcidas-x and
ldm-users email lists announcing that the machine known as
adde.ucar.edu (aka motherlode.ucar.edu) had been changed to new
hardware. McIDAS users that are accessing the data need to run a
'DATALOC HOST' to update the client routing table pointed to by
$MCTABLE_WRITE.
There is one machines at the UPRM that are continuing to access data
off of adde.ucar.edu. Here is that machine's IP address:
136.145.162.245
Could you help figure out who may be running McIDAS from these
machines? Any help you can provide in this would be most appreciated.
We need to decommission the old adde.ucar.edu as soon as possible, and
a new machine that functions as adde.ucar.edu is up and running.
Here is the original message I sent out the the Unidata-maintained
mcidas-x and ldm-users email lists:
Users of the McIDAS ADDE server adde.ucar.edu:
We have transitioned the machine known as adde.ucar.edu (aka
motherlode.ucar.edu) from Sun Enterprise E420 to SunFire 480 hardware.
The machine has also been moved from the NCAR machine room to the
Unidata offices at Foothills Lab #4.
Because of the relocation of adde.ucar.edu, the IP address has changed
from 128.117.15.119 to 128.117.114.119. This change coupled with
McIDAS' cache of ADDE server IP addresses in its client routing table
requires the following steps be undertaken by sites accessing data from
the ADDE server adde.ucar.edu:
<login as the user 'mcidas'>
cd $MCDATA
dataloc.k HOST
If you have cron-initiated scripts run from an account other than 'mcidas'
that access adde.ucar.edu:
<login as the user running the cron-initiated scripts>
cd $MCDATA
dataloc.k HOST
'DATALOC HOST' will force McIDAS to update its client routing table
(pointed at through $MCTABLE_WRITE) cache of IP address for all hosts.
Please follow the above procedures as soon as you are able. ADDE
access to the old adde.ucar.edu machine (IP address 128.117.15.119)
will begin failing at the beginning of the week of November 7.
Thanks in advance for your prompt attention in this matter!
Please send any questions/comments regarding the above procedure to
Unidata User Support <address@hidden>.
Thanks in advance...
Cheers,
Tom

Hi Tom:
Sorry I didn't respond, the reason is that I moved to other
department and I haven't update my email on mcidas user list. Yes I'm
in charge of this computer, I'll do the changes today so it does not
try to access the old computer any more, thank you for your remind and
I apologize for the inconvenience.
