We had 4 successful updates (out of 8)
w20-575-3, 5, 6 and 7 all updated normally.
w20-575-2 was powered down at 22:52 last night and thus missed its upgrade
window.
w20-575-1 and -4 both had stale logins.
I have reset 1, 2 and 4 and they should upgrade tonight.
quickstation-2 did not upgrade (or ping) and when I arrived at it, it was
making a jet-engine sound and the display said "Unable to display this
resolution" and it did not ping. I power-cycled it, but video did not
come back and after about 30 seconds it started making the jet engine
sound again. I swapped in the monitor from the machine next to it, with
still no luck. since I can't get video, I can't figure out what happened.
If the kexec failed or caused the machine to lock up, power-cycling it
should still have brought it up as Jaunty. And if the kexec succeeded, it
should have at least been pingable.
However, it's a GX620 so I don't know how much replacement we want to do.
We may want to consider punting those quickstations (or moving them) as
they get very little use. I might poke at it some more this afternoon,
but have left it powered off for now.
