All,

The jumpers in the console cable have been swapped and the ccb now responds 
as ccb1cm.  My bad; sorry about all the confusion.

The full maintenance day is tomorrow, Tuesday.  We have not had the 
opportunity to back up the disk in the CCB.  However, in the interest of 
getting the CCB up on the telescope this week, we've decided to back up the 
disk another time.
