Chris and Mike,
sorry for the delay in getting back to you about the pqacts, etc.
there are three thredd pqacts that i'll attach: pqact.thredds
pqact.threddsconduit pqact.threddsradar that need to be place in ~ldm/etc
directory. also the etc/ldmd.conf file needs to have these three line
added to reference the pqacts.
exec "pqact -f ANY-CONDUIT-NNEXRAD-CRAFT /opt/ldm/etc/pqact.thredds"
exec "pqact -f CONDUIT|SPARE /opt/ldm/etc/pqact.threddsconduit"
exec "pqact -f NNEXRAD|CRAFT /opt/ldm/etc/pqact.threddsradar"
i believe the only extra s/w needed is the netCDF decoders package, it's
available at: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/decoders/
the binaries from the build go into the ~ldm/decoders directory and the
etc files from the build go into the ~ldm/etc directory.
if you want to bypass this step, comment out the pqact
entries that have the PIPE actions then you can come back later to install
them.
there is a new perl script used to scour the directory structure called
manageFilesDirs.pl and it goes into the ~ldm/util directory. i'll attach
the script too. also there is a manageFilesDirs.conf file to configure it
that goes into the ~ldm/etc direction, i'll attach too. the conf file
should be set correctly, so no mods will be needed unless you change the
directory structure in the pqacts. i suggest that you don't change them
because all the thredds configure file exepect that dir structure.
it is run once a day from cron, ie
#
# files/dirs managing script
30 21 * * * util/manageFilesDirs.pl -f
/local/ldm/etc/manageFilesDirs.conf > /data/ldm/logs/manageFilesDirs.log
#
after this is setup, then we can start on the thredds configurations.
