It's looking like it may have a blown power supply and Penguin is on it; ETA for a fix is tomorrow some time (it's colocated and they are going down there to grab the box and swap out parts). (*) This is a fast machine which was provided by Penguin Computing and BitMover as a place for people who do not have access to a high end machine and could use one. It's used for various BitKeeper tasks (translation: it can run a bk -r check -ac in about 15 seconds on the 2.5 tree). It is also the host for the BK->CVS repositories, so those are off the air as well (we have a mirror here so if you are dieing for your bits in CVS let me know). If you use BK and you need a login on fast x86 box, contact me or davem@redhat.com and we'll set you up an account when it comes back up. If you appreciate this box, buying some hardware from Penguin Computing (or getting someone else to do so) is a good way to show that appreciation. Penguin deserves a lot of thanks, it's a nice box and they provide the power, bandwidth, and support which are all hidden costs and thankless tasks. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitmover.com/lm
