Hi.  You are listed as the contact on one or more Solaris machines
which won't be able to take the Athena 9.0 because of its partition
sizes.  You can either continue to run the 8.4 release, or reinstall
the machine so that it gets bigger root and /usr partitions.

For now, as a precautionary measure, we are going to put these
machines special cluster information so that they won't try to take
the 9.0 release.  If you decide to reinstall the machine, please let
hesreq@mit.edu know so that it can be put back in the public cluster.
Let me know if you have any questions.
