There is only one FOG, which spans both datacenters. Neither datacenter is local to any location to where the DTUs are deployed, so there should be no affinity. Both datacenters are hot, as are the locations where the DTUs are deployed. Our network is highly redundant and reliable - we are ex

Not sure if it's the same problem or not, but in our environment we found having the LD_PRELOAD environment variable was breaking firefox. You might want to try unsetting that environment variable (if it is set) and see if that allows firefox to launch. Hope this helps, Erin Jeff Port wrote: > I

Hi Joerg, That might work. I could set the time out in auth.props to 2.5 minutes, so that physically disconnected DTUs would fire the utaction disconnect event after 5 minutes. (That gives people 5 minutes to plug it back in. :-) ) Thanks all for the help, Stuart. -- Stuart Robinson
