[Go-essp-tech] PCMDI3 not responding

[philip.kershaw at stfc.ac.uk]

I thought that pcmdi3 had a some kind of failover system in place?

With the existing infrastructure it should be possible to mirror the PCMDI attribute service at other locations in the federation.

Cheers,
Phil

Hi,

is it possible to separate the attributeService from the gateway? The most simple way would be a second installation with only 443 access and the gui turned off or something alike.  I'm just thinking that mixing the central attribute service with the production Gateway is not very wise in the long run. If it breaks, it breaks the whole federation... We don't need springs nor even tomcat for that, the more we can strip the service down the more robust it will get.
Of course this is only a half-step solution, which we should continue ASAP. I totally agree with Stephen..
And in any case a DOS attack to us is so simple that it makes me cry...

Thanks,
Estani

The PCMDI3 node isn't responding today.  This is preventing all access to CMIP5 data as the PCMDI AttributeService is queried for each download or when a user browses to  that dataset in a Gateway.

I think this single point of failure is a big problem in the system -- we need to address it ASAP.

Stephen.
