IETF RFC 638
IMP/TIP preventive maintenance schedule Last modified on Wednesday, May 10th, 2000 Permanent link to RFC 638 Search GitHub Wiki for RFC 638 Show other RFCs mentioning RFC 638 Network Working Group Alex A. McKenzie Request for Comments: 638 BBN-NET NIC: 30538 April 25, 1974 IMP/TIP Preventive Maintenance Schedule This RFC corrects numerous inaccuracies in RFC #633. Rather than trying to list all the changes, I urge all Liaisons and other interested parties to look carefully at the times now listed for the sites they are interested in. This note presents the current IMP/TIP Preventive Maintenance schedule. Preventive Maintenance is scheduled on a monthly basis and a given machine is normally scheduled at the same time each month; wherever possible the time is chosen to coincide with the PM time for the Host(s) at the site. It is sometimes necessary to reschedule PM's because of network connectivity considerations or for other reasons. Whenever this is necessary we will follow the usual procedure for scheduling down time with our "primary contact" at the site. Permanent changes to the schedule will he announced via the RFC mechanism. PM's normally do not require the IMP/TIP to be taken down. However, machines must be taken down in some cases, so no one should rely on the machine remaining available through the PM period. PLEASE REMEMBER THAT TUESDAY MORNINGS FROM 7am TO 9am ARE RESERVED FOR NETWORK SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE. All times shown below are Eastern Time. First Monday (of each month) 5 BBN IMP [0830-1130] 40 NCC TIP [1130-1430] 47 WRIGHT-PATTERSON [1300-1700] First Tuesday 30 BBN TIP [0830-1130] 3 UCSB [1130-1430] McKenzie PAGE 1 |
