atlanta, houston and austin.

I'm still working the exception for the OpenVMS server to continue to be on OpenVMS and in the TAY data
center until that center really 'exits'. The problem is that most of the external connectivity in that center
has moved already and I'm part of the stub left behind. That has caused some issues like the switch got
something done to it on sunday morning not sending a blast out that was acted on. Until I was in and couldn't
get to the site and contacted the folks left in TAY to fix it there hadn't been a call logged. The server was up
and the pings to the server were working so the IT folks on my side of the firewall were never alerted.

Works now again...

The hardware in question does not seem to be very reliable! I've been using the same router/switch (Linksys BEFR81) for five or six years now with out single failure. It cost me about $80. I suspect that the HP switch in question would cost me $1000 or more.




Sounds like just about any other OpenVMS sysmgr out there.
Forgotten, left behind, never thought of... :-)
