486.1FUTURS:: - downtime on Thursday 17-Dec-1992NEWOA::ORCHARD_TIf you don't change your direction ...Thu Dec 17 1992 10:2212
    Keith,
    
    We (on FUTURS) were told that it would be down for at least 3 hours
    today (Thurs 17th) - but not WHEN it would be taken from us.
    
    - please let us all know. I, for one, prefer to work for as long as
    possible on FUTURS and copy the few things across to another machine
    when I *have* to.
    
    Thanks.

Tony,

It's a long and complex story.. 

To cut a long story short, a mail was sent to all DSE and ASG people, 
telling them it would go down. However, as you said, when was not specified.

It was planned that it would go down at 09:00.. However, IS were not ready
with the backup save_sets we needed.. So we left it up.

It looks as though We won't be finished till about 10 pm tonight..

Apologies.

David
