Initial message

The FTP connection to the server ftp.ifremer.fr is blocked today, Monday, June 23rd.

As a result, GDAC Coriolis is unable to download files from the various DACs. We’ll let you know once the situation returns to normal.

Synchronization with GDAC-US will allow GDAC Coriolis to stay up-to-date, but with a delay of several hours.

We apologize for this service degradation.

Conclusion

The connection issue with the ftp.ifremer.fr server was resolved on Wednesday, June 25, around 1:00 PM.

It was ultimately limited to FTP downloads of Argo data for GDAC users. Contrary to what was initially reported, the FTP upload of data by Argo DACs to the GDAC was not affected.
