AFS updates

Date: Wed, 3 May 95 15:43:46 -0400
From: David Krikorian <dkk@MIT.EDU>
To: athena-outage@MIT.EDU

Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, 6am-8am, there will be AFS updates.

Tomorrow morning, I'll be restarting the remaining 3 athena cell AFS
version 3.2 top-level volume servers (Scylla, Hydra and Charybdis).
Each one should take only a few seconds, and have no visible impact.
After the restart, they will be running AFS 3.3a.

Saturday morning, I'll be doing the same update on all the AFS
fileservers in W20.  They are: Antaeus Bacon Diebenkorn Feininger
Fennel Hockney Nutmeg Polyphemus Tantalus Thyme.  The outage should be
short (several minutes each), but there's a chance it will take more
than an hour.

Sunday morning, the automatic weekly (6am Sunday) restart of AFS
service should smoothly and transparently update the version 3.2
servers in E40, but I reserve the right to work on them (in a
non-emergency state) until 8am, in case there is any trouble.  Those
servers are: Acheron Anise Cinnamon Cocytus Cumin Demeter Geryon Hades
Hera Ixion Phlegethon Rosemary Sisyphus Tartarus.

Also, replicated read-only lockers (the first half of
/afs/athena/service/BACKUP_LIST) will not be updated on Saturday
night.
