   Hello everyone,

   Our Netapp filer threw a drive over the weekend, and due to the holiday 
we may or may not receive the replacement today.  We had planned to 
upgrade the filer's on-board OS tomorrow morning EDT, but one of the 
upgrade requirements is that all components be in working order.  In case 
we don't get the drive today, we're re-scheduling the upgrade for 
Wednesday morning, beginning around 6:00 a.m. EDT.

   Thank you,
   Donald

   Hi ibiblio-announce,

   Remember the new hardware we added to one of our filers?  We now need to 
upgrade the OS and firmware so that the filer can properly recognize and 
use this new hardware.  We're only behind by one minor revision on each, 
so we're anticipating that our downtime should be well under an hour.

   We've planned to begin at 6:00 a.m. EDT on next Tuesday, July 8, 2008. 
As before, "most" ibiblio services will be unavailable during this 
maintenance window.  The following services *will* remain available:

- E-mail
- Mailing Lists
- lyceum.ibiblio.org
- ibiblio radio streams (WCPE, WUNC, etc).

   If the timing of this maintenance poses an insurmountable inconvenience 
to you, please do drop us a note via http://www.ibiblio.org/help and we'll 
work something out.

   thank you,					919.962.5646 w
