Fun with colocation

Pell and Gehenna are colocated in downtown Portland; we're moving them from one facility to another this week (starting in, um, about 2.5 hours), so it's possible that they'll evaporate for several hours while the machines are handcarted 8 blocks and the routes are reshuffled.

At least I'm not going this on a friday night; if everything is moved on wednesday afternoon, there's actually a fighting chance someone will be working in the old and new NOCs and they'll be able to move the routes without waiting until after the 3-day weekend.

In the worst case, TSFR will be up again sometime next week.

I'm kind of surprised they're still up. I'm picturing you being drafted to color Russell's coloring book, get Russell a snack, take Russell to the bathroom, etc... maybe it will take a few hours to shut the machines off!

Yeah, well, it turns out that I'm not going to move the colo until friday, because after discussing it with the sysadmin, we decided that teasing the NOCs should only be done once. I'll do the work on Friday, which is already a lost cause anyhow.
