On Thursday, June 12, starting at 10:00 pm, there will be an outage of
the MITnet bootp servers kick-me and pepe-lepew, so that they can be
replaced with a single master bootp server. The outage should not
last longer than two hours.
During this outage, network booting and installation of DECstations
and SGI Indys will be impossible. Rebooting of networked HP printers
(including those in the clusters) during the outage will result in the
printer being unusable until the outage is over.
Questions should be directed to Athena Server Operations,
ops@mit.edu.
