Up to 2 minutes delay on 66.112.156.221:60002 and 3 minutes delay occured on 66.112.156.224:60002. Edited by kdresser on Aug 31, 2005 at 10:10 AM

I am connected to 2 servers, .222 and .227 and both are right on with the market, but we are seeing some servers queuing data. Our OPS group is looking into what is causing this on the other servers. Yesterday we were able to identify a user who was taking an excessive number of connections, so we terminated the user and took the server he was connected to offline.

Same time window there too. If you want logs or even an email alert when these happen, I'll oblige. Thanks for the response. Edited by kdresser on Aug 31, 2005 at 10:22 AM

We have an engineer finishing up some maintenence and will have them online shortly, to balance the load further. In the mean time our developers are looking into how certain users are able to create so many connections to the server. Not sure if this is an IQFeed but, or someone circumventing our protocols. In either case, the user was terminated until we can figure out the cause. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

I've got messages at 10:13 EST where the futures have a 10:13 time stamp, but the stocks have a 10:10 time stamp. Seems to me the issue is probably futher upstream than the specific server I'm connected to...

Instead, I had all of our staff running around researching the problem and working to correct whatever issues there were as quickly as possible. I will get someone dedicated to updating this page so you and our other customers are better informed when there is a problem we are aware of. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

One suggestion might be to add a single character to the Time message: N-Normal T-Trouble This way our apps could take appropriate action.
