Nodeless Nonsense

An admin from URI called me this morning to inform me that EVABase is down. Apparently it's been down for some time now.

This is nice information to have, since the team has been debugging the nodes for weeks, trying to understand what the issue might be. At least that explains why logins aren't working.

This was the same guy that called me about those diag images, I could tell. So I bugged him about those. He says they need to restore the entire image database to retrieve them, I guess this is taking him awhile (he says he admins several sites).

He mentioned he posted an EVA calibration template, I'll have to direct the project team to it.

He also mentioned that several other people had asked him about the template. I found this curious so I checked over the node failed-login logs and found some activity there as well.

What's going on with that? Is the home office checking-up on the project and its resources?

Or perhaps...Is it possible that old ghosts walk again?

I should contact tacops.

In a little while. I'd like to see how this develops.
