From: Garry Zacheiss <zacheiss@MIT.EDU>
The Athena Solaris install server solar2 will be unavailable
tomorrow evening beginning at midnight, due to a software
upgrade. solar2 (IP address 18.159.0.21) is not the default install
server for most Solaris install floppies, so installs of non-Ultra Suns
should not be effected by this outage. solar2 is the default server for
net booting Ultra installs, so attempts to install an Ultra during the
outage will fail if you accept the default server. Selecting solar (IP
address 18.159.0.28) as the install server will work for Ultra installs
during the outage. We are scheduling a 2 hour window for this outage,
but if all goes well, solar2 should be back in service sooner than this.
