...BOULDER AND COLLEGE PARK DATA CENTER RECOVERY - UPDATE...
Troubleshooting the bad critical hardware in the Boulder data
center continues.
IDP Nowcoast was moved into optimal state with a failover to
Boulder. IDP NOMADS, it has been stable all day and is only
occasionally slow to respond to requests, we are moving it off
the degraded list.
IDP applications in a degraded state:
- IRIS/iNWS/HCE (IRIS Website down, IPAWS and CAP are okay)
- MADIS (Auto Flood Warning System not getting data)
- MRMS (missing some hourly products)
- GISC-Washington is offline.
WCOSS is missing several data sets from CP internet issues, but
there are no model production failures. The internet is degraded
for WFOs, CWSUs, WPC, OPC, and Guam. AWC and NWC confirmed that
the Internet is functioning after a workaround was put in place,
but it is not at 100%. Some Internet capabilities have been
established for WPC, OPC, and CPC.
CPC is unable to establish ftp connections for data
transfers/ingest in support of CPC operations.
WPC has degraded IDSS and collaboration capabilities.
Anchorage Volcanic Ash Advisory Center (VAAC) is unable to
effectively monitor volcanic ash threats, due to an ongoing loss
of Himawari satellite imagery into AWIPS/N-AWIPS.
NCO continues to work on restoring the Boulder data center in
order to fail all applications, so we may reboot the College Park
firewall.

The operational CFSv2 shows a cold SST bias in the southern

sufficient ocean data to properly constrain the ocean state. NCO
implemented a fix to re-initialize the CFSv2 ocean with an
off-line GODAS ocean analysis effective with today's 06z cycle.
The same procedure was followed 3/29/2016, 7/21/2016, 11/10/2016,

...NOMADS - NAM/GEFS AND ALL MODEL GRIB FILTER/OPENDAP DATA
OUTAGE...
The data center network maintenance that took place on 10/22 has
caused many unexpected issues. First..NAM/GEFS data is not
available Second...Beginning early today our NCO system admins
began to troubleshoot reports of both the Opendap and Grib Filter
services being unresponsive with all models. Unfortunately, with
the complexity of the issues within the Boulder data center, the
team was unable to restore the services. At this time, both
OpenDap and Grib Filter services are down for all models. We will
continue to persevere through this incredibly impactful outage
and work as quickly as we can to recover NOMADS.
As a mitigation to the broken services, users can still download
full files over https. Or leverage the idx files with the fast
downloading method, explained here:

There is a widespread issue with NCEP/IDP website slowness and/or
connection errors (this includes NOMADS, FTPPRD, TGFTP, API, and

For API there are two issues - one VRF-work related and the other
a pre-existing issue:
- WFOs's ability to feed forecast data to the back-end of the API
was disrupted during the Enterprise VRF work. The dataflow has
been restored - most offices's data is current and NCO is working
with the remaining 12 offices to have them resend their most
recent forecast grids.
- Users accessing the front end API URL are getting periodic time
outs to their queries. This issue existed prior to the Enterprise
VRF move and is being actively worked by NCO, but will require a
longer-term infrastructure update. Users should retry their query
as the timeouts are intermittent.

Today (Jul 07) NCO will be moving Enterprise Internet Traffic
from Silver Spring to College Park to move related traffic off of
legacy devices in SS that are end of life.
For 2 hours (1230Z-1430Z), impacted sites will experience full
downtime as the traffic is moved. After this is complete, another
2 hour period (1430Z-1630Z) will be used for testing and
validation in which partial downtime and sporadic outages are
expected. All services will be restored to working conditions
following the testing and validation period.
Users who have logged in via CAC authentication prior to the
start of maintenance will not be locked out as long as they
remain active. IMETs should connect to Central Region for thin
client access.
Site impacts:
- No internet.
- No CAC authentication.
- No VPN access.
Impacted sites:
- WFO's (with the exception of SR)
- All CWSUs, RFCs, Regional Headquarters.
- Radar Operations Center (ROC)
- National Data Buoy Center (NDBC)
- National Logistics Support Center/National Reconditioning
Center (NLSC/NRC)
Related impacts:
- Impacted sites will lose NWSChat access.
- NLETS will be unable to send WWAs.
- NGITWS will not update with new forecast grids or radar data.
- No new buoy data from NDBC.
- No new NWPS grid submissions.

...IMPACTFUL MAINTENANCE ON THE NETWORK - JULY 7TH...
Enterprise VRF Move Project...
We recommend you log onto your CAC VPN prior to 12:30Z on July
7th to ensure your connection remains active.
Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF):
On July 7, 2020, NCO is performing impactful maintenance on the
network. We are moving specific OneNWSnet internet bound traffic
(Google Suite, email, Hangouts, etc.) from devices in Silver
Spring to devices in College Park. For two (2) hours, all
Regional Headquarters, all Weather Forecast Offices (WFO)
including those which are co-located with other centers, River
Forecast Centers (RFC), Center Weather Service Units (CWSU),
Nexrad Radar Operation Center (ROC), National Control Facilities
(NCF), and National Data Buoy Center (NDBC) will not be able to
send or receive information via the internet. WFO, RFC, CWSU,
ROC, NCF, and Silver Spring employees will not be able to CAC
authenticate via Silver Spring to use the VPN. Network Control
Facility (NCF) will continue sending Watches and Warnings to all
endpoints including: NOAAPort, NWWS, NWWS-OI, NIDS, and IDP.
NWSChat will be up and functioning but will not be available to
impacted sites. Complete details of the expected impacts are
described below. In the event of a Critical Weather Day (CWD),
this migration will be postponed.
Scheduled maintenance outage window is as follows:
Start Date/Time: 07/07/2020 at 1230Z
End Date/Time: 07/07/2020 at 1430Z
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USERS DURING THE MAINTENANCE WINDOW:
-Users who have logged in via CAC authentication prior to the
start of maintenance will not be locked out as long as they
remain active. We recommend you log onto your CAC VPN prior to
12:30Z on the 7th to ensure your connection remains active.
-IMETS users should connect to the Central Region for thin client
access.

..Alaska Region VRF migration and outage today (June 30)...
Bottom Line Up Front:
Today (June 30th), NCO will be reconfiguring the Wide Area
Network (WAN) connections between the Alaska Region and their
telecom provider CenturyLink. This is the last remaining region
to be migrated. For 2.5 hours (1800Z - 2030Z), there will be a
complete outage for the Alaska Region. This includes total loss
of external resources outside Alaska Region as well as loss of
internal resources within Alaska region. One of the Key impacts
is No Ability to issue forecast and warning products. More
details, including specific impacts, are provided below. In the
event of CWD that affects Alaska Region, this migration will be
postponed.
Why:
These changes will be the last in a series of regional site
migrations. The Alaska region connects to Silver Spring via
tunnels, while other oconus regions connect to MPLS cloud for
better redundancy. This migration will ensure WAN traffic leaving
Alaska region will no longer be traversing tunnels to Silver
Spring, but peering directly with Centurylink per VRF. This
project is also a dependency towards Silver Spring Enterprise
Migration move.
Maintenance Date/Time:
Start Date/Time: 6/30/2020 at 1800Z (2:00pm ET)
Stop Date/Time: 7/2/2020 at 2300Z (7:00pm ET)
Maintenance Window Details:
Impact Window - Total of two hours and thirty minutes of
estimated downtime today(Tuesday 6/30/2020) from 1800Z to 2030Z.
This block of time is when the actual move of the VRFs
infrastructure will occur and the impacts listed below will be
experienced. Following the downtime, all the traffic for all
impacted sites will be restored.
Testing & Troubleshooting Window - The remainder of the
maintenance time (6/30/2020 2030Z to 2300Z; 7/1/2020 1800Z to
2300Z and 7/2/2020 1800Z to 2300Z) will be to address any
immediately reported or observed fallout from the internet
traffic migration.
Physical Maintenance Location:
Alaska Regional Headquarters, WFO Anchorage
Maintenance will Impact the following sites:
-Alaska Region HQ
-Anchorage Sand Lake Facility
-Juneau WFO
-NTWC (National Tsunami Warning Center)
-Fairbanks WFO
-FC-DAS/NESDIS
-ZAN CWSU
What Will be Impacted During the Downtime:
-Complete loss of traffic for Alaska Region, we will perform
maintenance for one VRF at a time. Each VRF will have an
estimated 30 minutes of downtime. We will announce on the bridge
call as we start moving VRF at a time.
-Management VRF: Management traffic so will break monitoring for
Alaska Region
-AWIPS VRF: External AWIPS traffic outside Alaska Region
-Tsunami VRF: Tsunami traffic won’t be available from Alaska
Region
-Redundant connection to NWSTG
-Loss of seismic ingest from 5 data providers
-Loss of capability to submit products to tsunami.gov
-Enterprise VRF: Internet traffic for Enterprise VRF for Alaska
Region
-NCEP VRF: Internal Alaska MPLS cloud impacted, sites within
Alaska Region won’t be able to communicate while we move this
VRF.
Public data and services that will be affected include:
-Some surface and hydrologic observations will be unavailable.
-Some ship observations will be unavailable.
-Upper-air observations, excluding Barrow and Anchorage, may be
delayed.
-The Alaska Weather Information Line will not update.
-NOAA Weather Radio at the following sites will be out of
service: Barrow, Kotzebue, Nome, Bethel, Saint Paul, Unalaska,
Cold Bay, and Yakutat.
-No Ability to issue forecast and warning products, including TAFS
What Will NOT be Impacted During the Downtime:
-Resources available on local LAN at each individual location.
Post Deployment:
NCO will maintain a post deployment maintenance window of two (2)
business days to fix any issues that are reported as a fallout
from the migration. If issues are discovered after the two day
window, Please contact NCO’s SDM at 301-683-1500 and NCO will
address these issues through our operational support process.

...Alaska Region VRF migration outage on Monday June 29...
Bottom Line Up Front
On June 29th, 2020, NCO is reconfiguring the Wide Area Network
(WAN) connections between the Alaska Region and their telecom
provider CenturyLink. This is the last remaining region to be
migrated. For Two and a half (2 ½) hours, there will be a
complete outage for the Alaska Region.This includes total loss of
external resources outside Alaska Region as well as loss of
internal resources within Alaska region. One of the Key impacts
is No Ability to issue forecast and warning products. More
details, including specific impacts, are provided below. In the
event of CWD that affects Alaska Region, this migration will be
postponed.
Why: These changes will be the last in a series of regional site
migrations. The Alaska region connects to Silver Spring via
tunnels, while other oconus regions connect to MPLS cloud for
better redundancy. This migration will ensure WAN traffic leaving
Alaska region will no longer be traversing tunnels to Silver
Spring, but peering directly with Centurylink per VRF. This
project is also a dependency towards Silver Spring Enterprise
Migration move.
Maintenance Date/Time:
Start Date/Time: 6/29/2020 at 1800z (2:00pm ET)
Stop Date/Time: 7/1/2020 at 2300z (7:00pm ET)
Maintenance Window Details
Impact Window - Total of two hours and thirty minutes of
estimated downtime on Monday 6/29/2020 from 1800z to 2030z. This
block of time is when the actual move of the VRFs infrastructure
will occur and the impacts listed below will be experienced.
Following the downtime, all the traffic for all impacted sites
will be restored.
Testing & Troubleshooting Window - The remainder of the
maintenance time (6/29/2020 2030z to 2300z; 6/30/2020 1800z to
2300z & 7/1/2020 1800z to 2300z) will be to address any
immediately reported or observed fallout from the internet
traffic migration.
Physical Maintenance Location: Alaska Regional Headquarters, WFO
Anchorage
Maintenance Impact:
Sites: Alaska Region
Alaska Region HQ
Anchorage Sand Lake Facility
Juneau WFO
NTWC (National Tsunami Warning Center)
Fairbanks WFO
FC-DAS/NESDIS
ZAN CWSU
What Will be Impacted During the Downtime –
Complete loss of traffic for Alaska Region, we will perform
maintenance for one VRF at a time. Each VRF will have an
estimated 30 minutes of downtime. We will announce on the bridge
call as we start moving VRF at a time.
Management VRF - Management traffic so will break monitoring for
Alaska Region
AWIPS VRF - External AWIPS traffic outside Alaska Region
Tsunami VRF - Tsunami traffic won’t be available from Alaska
Region
Redundant connection to NWSTG
Loss of seismic ingest from 5 data providers
Loss of capability to submit products to tsunami.gov
Enterprise VRF - Internet traffic for Enterprise VRF for Alaska
Region
NCEP VRF - Internal Alaska MPLS cloud impacted, sites within
Alaska Region won’t be able to communicate while we move this
VRF.
Public data and services that will be affected include:
Some surface and hydrologic observations will be unavailable.
Some ship observations will be unavailable.
Upper-air observations, excluding Barrow and Anchorage, may be
delayed.
The Alaska Weather Information Line will not update.
NOAA Weather Radio at the following sites will be out of service:
Barrow, Kotzebue,
Nome, Bethel, Saint Paul, Unalaska, Cold Bay, and Yakutat.
No Ability to issue forecast and warning products, including TAFS
What Will NOT be Impacted During the Downtime –
Resources available on local LAN at each individual location.
Post Deployment:
NCO will maintain a post deployment maintenance window of two (2)
business days to fix any issues that are reported as a fallout
from the migration.
NCO will use the google spreadsheet to document and track any
fallout from this maintenance. That spreadsheet can be found
here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/190Ts3njS22cYhnv0oF_PsGiHpZ
EBgD1dZlXgDIjG6Bs/edit?usp=sharing
If issues are discovered after the two day window, Please contact
NCO’s SDM at 301-683-1500 and NCO will address these issues
through our operational support process.
