Early next week, there will be a series of brief outages of the
athena.mit.edu AFS database and top level volume servers. During these
outages, the machines will have additional disks added and RAID 1
mirroring configured for greater fault-tolerance.
The following servers will be unavailable for approximately 20 minutes
starting at the time and date listed:
