Subject: [CI] Re: CI Wide Downtime 03/31/07 09:00-12:00 CDT

All major services should be back and operational. Some workstation  
reboots will still occur in the next hour. With this downtime the  
faulty UPS was replaced, the latest OS security patches and bugfixes  
were applied, PVFS filesystems were upgraded to version 2.6.2, GPFS  
filesystems were upgraded to 3.1.0-10, and NVIDIA drivers were  
upgraded to 1.0-9755. Thank you for your patience during this outage.  
As always, if you have any problems or notice any problems, please  
email [EMAIL PROTECTED] Have a good weekend.
