Thread: Help with rdseed - No output files

To whom it may concern,


I'm working with FBA data in mseed format and I am trying to create seed files for delivery to the BCOGC. I have created dataless files with the pertinent header information and ran the following lines to try and create the seed data.

rdseed -d -o 5 -f "mseed file" -g "Dataless File"

and I get the following output.


<< IRIS SEED Reader, Release 5.3.1 >>
d = read data from tape
Using alt response file(s): /***dataless.seed
Taking input from ***.mseed
WARNING - Alternate Header File Present - Processing will be SEQUENTIAL
Output data format will be seed.
# No comments for station ####, network ##
# No comments for channel BHE, location ?? for station ####, network ##
# No comments for channel BHN, location ?? for station ####, network ##
# No comments for channel BHZ, location ?? for station ####, network ##

( note, I removed the full path names and added *** as those edits, as well as used # symbols for place holders for actual station names and networks )

I'm not sure what I'm doing incorrect or what this error means. I'm also confused because it seems like the code ran, but no new *.seed files were generated in the current directory. Any assistance you can give me would be appreciated. Also, please feel free to reach out to me if you need further clarification.
