The Athena bootp/tftp server tae-kwon-leap will be unavailable beginning
at 11pm on Thursday 6/19/2003 due to a hardware upgrade. The outage is
being scheduled to last approximately 1 hour, but if all goes well,
tae-kwon-leap will be back significantly sooner than that. During this
time, the machine will be replaced with newer hardware running Athena
9.1.
During the outage, Sun Ultra, SGI, and Linux network installs will not
be possible, and HP printers booted via bootp from tae-kwon-leap will
not be able to be rebooted; this includes all public cluster printers.
Any such printers that are powered off during this time will not be able
to be restarted until tae-kwon-leap is back in service. Printers left
running throughout the outage will experience no ill effects, however.
As always, notifications of the status of the outage will be sent to the
"consult" zephyr instance.
