644.0. "Conference unavailable 30-Dec" by UFP::MURPHY (Rick - WA1SPT/4) Tue Dec 29 1987 21:37

    This conference will be unavailable tomorrow, 30-Dec-1987.
    I'm (hopefully) going to upgrade the UFP cluster to VMS V5 IFT.
    You'll be the first to know how it went..

    Give me a break!!! I'm still getting ready to do the upgrade.
    (Making sure AUTOGEN sets up our ten nodes properly, etc..)
    I'll be starting the upgrade before noon.
    [After I finish my first cup of coffee.]

    The boot node is completed the upgrade. Lots of fun... (allowing my
    sarcasm to show..).
    Cross your fingers.. I hope thing will be stable now.
    I'll be adding satellites as I can.

	 were on the cursor that blinked montonously for a few seconds
	 that seemed to last an eternity.  Almost resigned to a failed
	 boot, he began to lean back in his chair and attribute another
	 crash to experience, when suddenly, without warning, appeared
	 the heartwarming prompt

    All's done for today - there are still 3 satelites that need to be
    booted in, but I gave up for the day.
    
    I'm going to write lock this topic; it doesn't seem very relevant to
    the conference to me..
