Not only did >I not get this done, but I have lost the email (Yes, I know, its my >own fault). I tried to find the email on the Unidata web page but >have not been successful. What were we supposed to do again? Here is the advise I provided to another user: Qustion: >Thanks. Also, if a pqact entry does have mAVN/mSSIAVN, will that change >to mGFS/mSSIGFS? We recommend that you modify any entries you may have in ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf and ~ldm/etc/pqact.conf (or other pqact configuration files) that specifically reference AVN or ETA. Instead of simply changing AVN to GFS and ETA to NAM, we recommend that you change your pattern to be able to handle both. For instance, if you have a regular expression that refers to mAVN, change it to refer to m(AVN|GFS), etc. Don't forget to check the integrity of your modification in pqact.conf by using ldmadmin pqactcheck If there are not typos, send a HUP signal to pqact telling it to reread your actions: ldmadmin pqactHUP Please let us know if you have additional questions.
