Subject: CDDISA Status



As you may be aware, the CDDIS has been down since Friday. One of the
main disks (including the anonymous ftp server, and CDDIS and ILRS web
server) on CDDISA went down after a power failure. Systems people are in
the process of finding a new one. Once installed, the new disk will have
to be restored from backup-up. We anticipate that this will take at least
another day.

In the meantime the ILRS Web Site is mirrored and available at
Communications Research Laboratory and is current (i.e., 20 August 1999).
This URL is http://galileo.crl.go.jp/ilrs/ilrs_home.html .

Also, the ILRS NP data from 18 August 1999 to 24 August 1999 (all
satellites with filename all_qlYYMMDD.all) and the NASA only NP data
(filenames nasa_qlYYMMDD.dat) will soon be available from the Center for
Space Research ftp server. The NP data will be accessed either via the
Web from ftp://ftp.csr.utexas.edu/pub/slr/slrql/ or via anonymous ftp
from Node: ftp.csr.utexas.edu and Directory: /pub/slr/slrql. The file
protections are being changed to permit global access. Hopefully this
will be resolved shortly (i.e., within the next 24 hours) and any
questions regarding accessing the data from CSR can be directed to Rick
Pastor at CSR (pastor@csr.utexas.edu).

The global NP dataset will be made available each day at these CSR
addresses above until the CDDISA returns to normal operations.

Satellite predictions are also available at the EDC or NERC.

The predictions can be accessed either via the Web from (EDC)
ftp://ftp.dgfi.badw-muenchen.de/pub/laser/predictions/ or via anonymous
ftp
from Node: ftp.dgfi.badw-muenchen.de and Directory:
/pub/laser/predictions .

The predictions can be also be accessed either via the Web from (NERC)
ftp://mtfiles.nerc-monkswood.ac.uk/nercslr/current/ or via anonymous ftp
>From Node: mtfiles.nerc-monkswood.ac.uk and Directory: /nercslr/current

CDDIS apologizes for any inconvenience. Many thanks to Rick Pastor, CSR,
and CRL for accommodating us during this problem period.
