A few small items today.

Still messing with the new science database indexes. Bob just started dropping/recreating these one at a time, which may slow down the assimilator inserts, but we'll see. Having the indexes on a different volume can only help.

We just got a used Raritan 16-port network KVM donated to us - I believe the donor would like to remain anonymous (if you're readind this thank you!). Eric got this hooked up to a test server pretty quickly - it's pretty sweet. We'll get this in the closet sometime next week, and then we'll have the ability to reboot systems from home, which should minimize down time over the long haul.

With the regular BOINC database performing quite well these days, we may attempt turning on the "resend lost results" features again early next week and see if we can handle it.

I have a gig tonight where I have to sing, but with my lingering cold/congestion I currently sound kinda like Brad Garrett. Should be interesting.

I hate singing right after (or during) a cold! I also hate it when there's a lot of smoke and I can't breathe right to hold my notes. I'm beginning to like the new legislation in IL banning smoking in all restaurants and bars.

I dunno... I equate bars with "wine, women, song, and cigs"...and I don't even smoke...

A good new update & well done to the KVM donor.
