Network Outages yesterday and today
http://nic.phys.ethz.ch/news/1193835348
Since the software upgrade on the ETH routers (managed by
[1]Informatikdienste) two weeks ago, there were several more or less
short network outages, especially during the last few days. A software
downgrade on the central core routers last night didn't seem to fix
all problems, so the [2]ID-KOM will dowgrade the software on the
remaining core routers this evening.
This means a [3]complete network downtime starting at 21:00 today and
lasting at least 10 minutes, probably more.
We recommend to stop working and logging out today before 21:00.

NETng IP Migration, 2nd Step
http://nic.phys.ethz.ch/news/1192549107
During the next weeks, we will be switching over step by step the
computers in our network to the final IP range intended for the
Physics Department as part of the [1]NETng migration. All hosts in the
195.176.48.0/21 IP range (other ranges are not affected) will move
into the [2]192.33.96.0/21 range which means that the first three
bytes of the IP address will change.
Every computer not having a static IP address (i.e. nearly all
notebooks) will get its address in the new IP range during the night
from next Monday to next Tuesday (22./23. Oct. 2007).
All of our managed workstations (Linux, Windows, Macs) will be
rebooted during the next weeks for the change, too.
Please read the whole article for details and implications.

FileMaker Server upgrade
http://nic.phys.ethz.ch/news/1190625190
Our FileMaker server fronalp (fm.phys.ethz.ch) will be upgraded to
FileMaker Advanced Server 9 on Wed. 26.09.07 07:30. This will cause a
~30 min downtime on all FileMaker databases (Lagerkatalog, Vademecum,
Gase...). We apologize for any inconvenience.

Short Outages and Maintenance Downtime of File Server Foostock
http://nic.phys.ethz.ch/news/1190358774
Today in the morning around 5am as well as again around 6am our file
server foostock, which contains all personal home directories, froze
for a few minutes because of hardware access failures. It works again
for the moment, at least with decreased performance, but we will take
the server down at the latest after [1]togETHer has started at 5pm--if
necessary also earlier--to investigate the issue closer.
We apologize for the inconvenience caused by this and wish you a happy
togETHer '07.
