Hi Gilbert and Daryl Thanks for your fast answer. Yes, I am using LDM 6.8.1. I changed the file ldmadmin-pl.conf to $pq_size = "4G", because I am ingesting data from CONDUIT (GFS model). The ldm.pq file has around 4 G (4 075 618 304), that is why I want to delete it. "This 'file' can be thought of as a rotating queue of data slots where products are inserted, deleted, etc as the running LDM processes see fit." Then, I can't modify it, the products will go out of the file just by LDM, and it will be always around 4 G? One more question: so, the size of this file will not disturb the ingestion of data by LDM? I am asking this because I had problems to receive data from CONDUIT (GFS 12hs) and I thought that maybe the problem was the size of the file ldm.pq. Using ldmadmin watch, I saw that the model was acessed correctly, but the folder at my machine (order in pqact) was empty. The lines of pqact: CONDUIT ^/data/nccf/com/gfs/prod/gfs\.(.*)/gfs\.t..z\.pgrb2f(.*) !grib2/ncep/GFS/#000/(.*)! FILE /usr/local/ldm/data/modelos/NCEP/GFS/50km/GFS50_\1.grib2 Thanks a lot 2010/11/19 daryl herzmann <akrherz@xxxxxxxxxxx> > On Fri, 19 Nov 2010, Carina Padilha wrote: > > I have problems with the product queue, I think that people that are using >> ldm since long time can help me.
