Everyone Downstream of "aeolus.ucsd.edu":
Aeolus (currently a DEC Alpha with limited disk space running OSF/1) will
suffer a transplant (becoming a high-end PC with an order of magnitude more
disk space running Linux) in the near future. The new equipment is up and
running (with only an IP address), I just have to go in and build the
directory trees to match what pqact.config expects.
I will try to give everybody a 24 hour "heads up" message, but it will
happen sometime prior to the 15th. The new aeolus will have the same name
and IP address as the old one, so I don't think anyone will have to make
any changes.
We'll just shut the old one down, make the necessary changes to
configuration files, then reboot the new one. It should be transparent to
all downstream nodes. (Famous last words???)
James Murakami: I lost your message with the new hostname you wanted for
UCLA, please send the name to me again and I'll put it into the new aeolus.
