[evla-sw-discuss] [Ecsv] archive down time

[Bryan Butler]

it's become apparent that i was not complete enough in my description of 
the effect of this - sorry!  let me describe it a bit more fully so 
folks understand better what the impact will be.

during this period, normal observing continues.  normal archive 
*storage* continues.  it's normal archive *retrieval* that will be 
disrupted.  james will have to take the ftp server machine down for a 
good chunk of a day so that he, john, and maybe kscott can get it set up 
for using lustre instead of the disk it's now using.  we are 
investigating some stop-gap measures to try to allow at least some 
minimal kind of archive retrieval during the down-time, but it's not 
clear whether that will bear fruit or not.
