I am trying to access data hosted on the LPDAAC's hyrax server. The following code was working:

import xarray as xr
import requests
url = 'https://opendap.cr.usgs.gov/opendap/hyrax/VNP13A1.001/h11v05.ncml'

# EDL Bearer token from EDL account.
edl_token = "<Tokek_from_EDL_here>"
auth_hdr="Bearer " + edl_token

#
my_session = requests.Session()
my_session.headers={"Authorization": auth_hdr}

#
ds = xr.open_dataset(url, engine='pydap', session=my_session)
```

It worked earlier in the morning (ET) and was able download some data. But it has been a couple of hours (at least 3) since i get the following 503 error Service Unavailable. You can test by checking trying to access the Data Response Form at this URL: https://opendap.cr.usgs.gov/opendap/hyrax/VNP13A1.001/h11v05.ncml.dmr.html


Thank you very much

Just as a follow up, the server is up and running again after a couple of hours. Thanks!

Hi @mikejmnez I apologize for the delay in response. We had a Planned Maintenace (PM) yesterday during this time that included OpeNDAP. We usually have PM on Wednesdays from approximately 8:00 am - 1:00 pm Central Time, depending on what is being worked on during the PM. Occasionally it can be longer depending on the amount of work that is being completed or any issues that arise during the event. We post banners on our website (https://lpdaac.usgs.gov/) ahead of time to warn users, so if you notice a tool is not working, we recommend checking our website to see if there is a status alert there. We recommend trying to access data outside of the Wednesday 8 am to 1 pm central window. We apologize for the inconvenience. Thanks -- Danielle
