<font size=2 face="sans-serif">I just think it's strange that all of the
eids servers seemed to have been giving me all the same responses in zabbix,
going into an up-down state, etc. Without having access (away from
any computer) to them due to being on A/L, I felt helpless. Has nqs
been running for quite some time now or has it recently just been installed?</font>

<br><font size=2 color=#004080 face="sans-serif">It is the NetQuakes acquisition
software. It is located in ~ppicker/bin/nqs. There are several components
to the acquisition system, so if you can provide more information about
what is using the most CPU we can determine if something is awry.</font>
<br><font size=2 color=#004080 face="sans-serif"> </font>
<br><font size=2 color=#004080 face="sans-serif">The NQ software waits
for NetQuakes dataloggers to check in on an hourly basis with State-of-health
information, upload earthquake data when the instrument triggers, and upload
log files. It shouldn’t have any load on the machine, other to check whether
a file is there or a datalogger is attempting to connect. The NetQuakes
dataloggers live on the Internet, so the server needs to be on a public
facing machine.</font>
