[Trilug-announce] Re: [COMPLETED] DOWNTIME TONIGHT 7:00 PM-???

[Joseph Tate]

The downtime has been completed.  A few issues remain to be sorted out 
over the next few days:

Work performed:
A new drive was installed in chiana (the backup server).
The drive removed from chiana was installed in moya replacing the dead 
drive.
All data from talon was copied to moya (moya became the new talon in the 
process).
Talon was removed and returned to Jason Tower who had lent it to us.

There were a few issues that remain unresolved.  Primarily, logins to 
dargo/login are very slow because of an LDAP lookup timeout of some 
kind.  If you discover any *other* problems, please mail sys at trilug.org.
