No computing in Maths 5-8am Fri 28 Mar

Update 7am 28 Mar 25:

All our servers are now "up", working.

However... the electrical work was not done. (Some approval document
was missing a signature, so the work was cancelled yesterday afternoon;
though the only room affected by the work was 612A, and we were ready
for the work to proceed.) The work will be done at some later date
(may possibly happen on Thu 3 Apr).

Cheers, Paul

Some electrical work in our server room 612A is scheduled for

  between 6-7am on Friday 28 March

I will need to shut down our servers beforehand, and power them on
after the work is complete. Thus there will be

  no Maths computing about 5am-8am on Fri 28 Mar

(including no wired network connectivity, no website).

The work is to connect power to room 605, to become our new server room,
so 612 can be turned back into office space.
Another (somewhat longer) outage will happen when I relocate the servers
from 612A to 605, hopefully about mid-April; but will be able to do that
work on the morning of some weekend.

Cheers, Paul
