Changing Server Dataset Names

Perform steps 1-4 in the following procedure to change or update Meteosat server dataset names.

1. From the console, login as mcadde or ssh into the ingestor as user mcadde.

2. To change ADDE names associated with particular datasets, edit the ~mcadde/mcidas/data/RESOLV.SRV file. The following is a sample of this file. Notice that all fields are comma delimited.

N1=MET,N2=ALL,TYPE=IMAGE,K=MSAT,R1=1,R2=100,Q=/data,C=All Meteosat images,
N1=MET,N2=FDHV,TYPE=IMAGE,K=MSAT,R1=1,R2=20,Q=/data,C=Full Disk 2.5km VIS,
N1=MET,N2=FD,TYPE=IMAGE,K=MSAT,R1=1,R2=20,Q=/data,C=Full Disk 5km; Channels 1 8 10 (VIS IR WV),
N1=MET,N2=B,TYPE=IMAGE,K=MSAT,R1=1,R2=20,Q=/data,C=B-Sector Channels 1 8 10 (VIS IR WV),

Where:

	N1	is the ADDE group name
	N2	is the ADDE descriptor name and must match one of the descriptor names in /data/names.msat
	TYPE	is the data type
	K	is the data format or kind
	R1	is the beginning dataset position number (usually 1)
	R2	is the ending dataset position number; this number should always be greater than the total number of images the ingestor has been configured to retain
	C	is the comment field displayed with DSINFO

3. Edit /data/names.msat to define which image product types are part of each dataset.

The /data/names.msat file is a configuration file that associates PDUS image types(s) with an ADDE dataset descriptor name. Each line of this file contains a unique ADDE dataset descriptor name and the image type(s) that are assigned to it. The same image type may be assigned to multiple dataset descriptors. Edit this file only if a new image type is transmitted or you want to change or create new dataset names. The table below lists the default ADDE descriptor names and the image types assigned to each.

ADDE Descriptor Names	Image Types
ALL	AV, AI, AW, AIV, AIW, AIVW, AIVH, BV, BI, BW, BIV, BIW, BIVW
B	BV, BI, BW, BIV, BIW, BIVW
FD	AI, AW, AIV, AIW, AIVW, AIVH
FDHV	AV

The ADDE command called IMGLIST lists the images in a dataset. It always shows the image resolution as 1 (full resolution) and the image size as the complete image size. All sectorizing or image blowdowns are done via other ADDE commands such as IMGDISP, IMGCOPY, etc.
