Update - Currently, Data Portal and pshell users may be experiencing unusually long wait times downloading files from banksia. This will sometimes end in errors (eg timeout or content not available) however the banksia scheduler will still eventually bring the files back online and you will be able to download when trying again a day or so after the initial attempt. We are currently investigating this with the vendor as a potential scheduler issue.
