>From: Bob Lipschutz <address@hidden> >Organization: NOAA/FSL >Keywords: 200410221929.i9MJTVvV012533 IDD failover Hi Bob, >Thanks for the heads-up. No worries. >I have switched FSL's request >for CONDUIT data from atm to idd.unidata.ucar.edu, >which appears to have been successful. Is there another >system you'd prefer us to failover to? No. Right at this second, idd.unidata.ucar.edu is a dual AMD Opteron machine running Fedora Core 2 64-bit. By the end of the day today, it should be a cluster of dual Opteron machines which are also running Fedora Core 2 64-bit. The change will be transparent, so you do not have to do any reconfiguration with the change (your feed(s) will disconnect and then reconnect to the cluster manager with the switch, but no data will be lost). >If you don't mind, we would like to keep this in place >until Monday morning, when we can switch back. No worries. I included estimates of when folks could fail back to reassure them that we are not expecting prolonged outages. > Bob Lipschutz > NOAA/FSL > 303-497-6636 Cheers, Tom -- NOTE: All email exchanges with Unidata User Support are recorded in the Unidata inquiry tracking system and then made publicly available through the web.
