<title>2013-04-23: LTSRF Processing Upgrades Completed</title>
<link>http://ghrsst.nodc.noaa.gov/opmessages.html#item20130423</link>
<description><![CDATA[In preparation for GDS 2.0 compliant data arriving at the
LTSRF, the automatic acquisition and ingest processes have been
upgraded to handle some non-compliant GDS 1.0 data.  This will enable
a backlog of such data to be cleaned up and ingested, freeing up
resources for the GDS 2.0 data processing.  Normal archive operations
have resumed.  Thank you for your patience.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[In preparation for GDS 2.0 compliant data arriving at the
LTSRF, the automatic acquisition and ingest processes are being
upgraded to handle these new data formats.  A backlog of
non-compliant GDS 1.0 data is being cleaned up and ingested.  Some
other past processing issues are also being handled.  Normal archive
operations will resume once these issues have been handled.  Thank
you for your patience.]]></description>

<title>2011-02-05: NODC Archives undergoing preventative maintenance</title>
<link>http://ghrsst.nodc.noaa.gov/opmessages.html#item20110205a</link>
<description><![CDATA[The NODC Archive system is undergoing preventative maintenance.  Diagnostics revealed a problem with a disk in the ingest processing filesystem.  The disk has been replaced and the filesystem was rebuilt and revalidated.  However, in order to reduce stress on that filesystem and the underlying disks, it was decided to move the ingest processing to a new filesystem.  That move is underway.
Thank you for your patience.]]></description>

<link>http://ghrsst.nodc.noaa.gov/opmessages.html#item20091214</link>
<description><![CDATA[Network issues that had been interfering with the acquisition of GHRSST
data from JPL have been resolved.  Additional issues with incomplete metadata
for AVHRR17_L data sets are being investigated.  All other GHRSST data sets are being
ingested normally.

<link>http://ghrsst.nodc.noaa.gov/opmessages.html#item20091209</link>
<description><![CDATA[Network issues have been interfering with the acquisition of GHRSST
data from JPL.  The connection has been unexpectedly slow and thus we have
been unable to keep up with the regular flow of data.  Network engineers are
looking into the trouble in hopes of determining the cause of the slowness.
Thank you for your patience.]]></description>

ingest and archiving of the data will resume once the maintenance
has been completed.  We apologize for any inconvenience this may
cause.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The 19 October NASA GDAC indexing system problem was resolved today
	and the LTSRF has resumed ingesting and archiving the backlogged
	data.  Roughly 11,000 data files appear to have been backlogged, so
	it will be at least several days before they have all been
	archived.]]></description>

<title>2006-11-14: Automated accessioning has been temporarily postponed</title>
<link>http://ghrsst.nodc.noaa.gov/opmessages.html#item001</link>
<description><![CDATA[Automated accessioning has been temporarily
postponed for newly arriving data due to a disk space issue, which arose
when a large volume of MODIS Terra was acquired unexpectedly.  The ingest
of newly arriving data has switched over to our backup systems in
Boulder, CO, at the National Geophysical Data Center.  Automated
accessioning of newly arriving data will be returned to normal operations
the week of Monday, November 20, 2006.  At that time, the backlog of data
not yet formally archived will also be processed and moved into the archive
system.  We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.]]></description>
