Re: [ldm-users] Data-Product Metadata

Donna,
A better way to use the "pqcat" utility would be to run it from an EXEC entry in the LDM configuration-file. For example: 

    EXEC "pqcat -O -vl pqcat.log /dev/null"
Having it run as a child of the LDM server means that it will receive a CONT signal every time a product is added to the product-queue and so will keep up-to-date. It will also terminate when the LDM system is stopped. 

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
