The firewall issues on ppewin have continued today (20th Jan) and I've been unable to fix the machine. Until a new windows printer server is setup printing via windows will not be possible. Printing from linux is unaffected.

I will be away at cern from tomorrow (Wednesday) until a week on Friday once I get back I'll start setting up a new printer server.

The upgraded ppe batch system is now up and running. The system can accessed as before at ppepbs.physics.gla.ac.uk .

The batch system twiki page: https://ppes8.physics.gla.ac.uk/twiki/bin/view/IT/BatchSystem has some basic instructions for using the system.

The delayed change over of the motherboard and OS upgrade of the home area disc server will now take place next Friday (24th Oct).

Line: 26 to 44

The server will be shutdown at 10am on Friday 24th Oct and will be down for the rest of the working day. During this time home areas and some data areas will not be available. This includes via nfs on the linux desktops or via samba on the windows desktops. The groups internal web pages and the twiki will also be unavailable (the T4 pages will still work).

In order to try and fix this problem fully the plan is to change the motherboard on the machine for one identical to the motherboard in the second disc server. This will need half a days down time (during a weekday) to do and will require first backing up all the data on ppes1, which will take a few days to a week to do.
