Hi,

Just so you folks know...

sipb machines are run by sipb, not system support. (If they really
need me to I'll log an off-hours hardware service call for them, but 
the system support group does not do any software maintenance on 
their machines.)

For service calls involving sipb machines you should deal with sipb
directly. When the service call has been completed let them, or some
contact that they've designated, know about it. 

Since I wasn't waiting for a service call, I more or less ignored this until 
today. Luckily probe caught the second message. Potentially, the machine was 
sitting idle from noon to 1:30, with no one knowing the machine had been 
repaired.

If there's any questions let me know.

Kim

PS: sipb folks, for servers maintained by system support I require the FSE
to notify the _contact_ (usually a specific member of staff) as well
as hotline when work has been completed on the server. That way we don't get 
non-descript, but important, mail messages set to a mailing list sitting 
around for hours. You may want to do something similar.

Kevin Denman called about an IBMRS6000, 520.  He said the disk drive has 
been replaced, been formatted, and certified with no errors.  It is all 
set and can load software.
