[EHPweb] QDDS failure

I checked a few QDDS clients (leaves) and they are up and running.  However, their notion the last message id# sent by the 3 hubs is incorrect. When the two (3?) QDDS hubs crashed, they reset their counters to zero, so that when I restarted them, their "current message id#" started at zero. Meanwhile, the clients stayed up, and their notion of the hubs' current message id# is 349,682 for qdds1, and 178,940 for iris.  This means that a client will never re-request a message from a hub until the messageid# of hubs exceeds the values before they crashed. The last time this happened was 9/8/2008, so it would probably take place in about 9 months.  That's too long to wait.

The solution is for me to send out an email to all QDDS clients asking them to stop QDDS, delete the file called save_max_received, and restart. I'll do that when Reston rejoins the network.

For unknown reasons, all 3 QDDS hubs died. I've successfully restarted QDDS
at qdds1.wr.usgs.gov and dmc.iris.washington.edu. I am unable to ssh into
qdds2.er.usgs.gov. Not sure what to do about that machine. Does anyone have
a contact there who can walk up to the machine?

I don't see anything obvious in the 2 QDDS logfiles that caused their
deaths. This has never happened before.

Thanks to Stan Schwarz and Stan Silverman for notifying me.

I've started both indexers back up at this time.  EHPMaster has seemed  
to stabilize a bit but there is still a massive backup running to  
ehpnas which may continue to cause problems.

Thanks,
