Yes, I have been having very similar problems with dcmetr (it would hang and use all the CPU and produce corrupted .gem files). I reported it a week or so ago, but never got any responses from anyone having issues. I have to do a pkill -9 dcmetr -----Original Message----- [mailto:owner-ldm-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Arthur A. Person Sent: Wednesday, May 26, 2004 11:22 AM Hi... Thought I'd throw this out for comments... I just fixed (I think) a strange LDM/Gempak problem: dcmetr was core dumping many times/minute, yesterday's *sao.gem file was at the 4GB limit (actually, larger 4488229376 bytes...???) but today's was ~4.5M thus far. I figured I would stop/restart the ldm, but when I tried to stop it, one rpc and rtstats wouldn't go down, so I had to kill them, remake the queues, and then restart. Oddly enough, I have a second ldm running on another system that also decodes metars (who's files seemed okay size-wise) that, when I tried to stop its ldm, it also hung similarly and I had to kill/rebuild/restart it as well. Anyone have any similar experience or could suggest a cause? I don't recall that I've ever seen anything quite like this before. Thanks. Art. -- Arthur A.
