RE: [Fwd: upgrading the University of Richmond cluster]

["Stefanovski, Sasko" <sstefano@richmond.edu>]

As I understand from his e-mail, our backup is scheduled to be step 6.
Should I proceed with 1,2,3. Then he can install his Nimbus stuff, and we
could proceed
futher. 

But, finnishing everything by the end of Monday looks too optimistic to me.
I have scheduled kernel upgrade for couple of machines in Data Center for
today too.

hi sasko,

   it looks like the backup worked last night and we didn't throw
any circuit breakers. if there are any problems let me know. i
have attached an email message that i received this morning from
steven james on the steps for upgrading the software. please
look it over and let me know what you think. there are a few
of things to consider.

1. does steven james's plan sound resonable?

2. can you get all this stuff done before the end of the day on
monday?

3. if not, what can be finished? we'll see if an old, senile
professor like myself can do the rest.

let me know what you think.

jerry
