I guess I'm going to have a very quiet weekend... FRMOP22 is down. I tried to
give a phone call and, O surprise, someone answered!! When I asked him to
please restart the FRHEC11 line, he asked what "FRHEC11" meant. I explained
about the network and the MVS machine and he said "It's the 3033, right?" --
"No, not the 3033, the 3081." -- "So, what is the command?" -- "Well, I don't
know, I don't know MVS at all!" -- "Me either." -- (trying to remember what I
had overheard at SHARE) "I think it's $S, try $SFRHEC11" -- "Sorry, doesn't
work". Oh well. Still, I'd like to know what use can an operator be if he does
not know anything about his system... All the other JES2 nodes in France and in
Belgium were either routed through FRMOP22 or down, so I could not ask anybody,
and FRCPN11 was down so no way to reach the States or Germany via CMD FRCPN11
CMD CERNVM CMD CEARN... :-( Could one of the JES2 people here tell me what the
proper command is, pour la prochaine fois? :-)
Version 8611 of BITEARN NODES is out. Please retrieve file VERS8611 NODUPD
from Netserv, run UPDNODES, reboot LISTSERV and run NODESGEN. Here is an
exerpt from VERS8611 NODUPD:

That's Supelec!! Now I understand why they complained about the phone bill.
They connected to FRPOLY11 instead of FRORS31 which is a few hundred yards from
the school... Oh well, I don't care, it's their money, if they want to waste it
it's their problem... :-)
You may also wish to have a look at the REP FRECP11 entry. For some reason
EARN coordination has decided that "Eric Thomas" should be replaced by "Mr.
Eric Thomas"... :-( I preferred it as it was before... :-( Oh well, never mind.
There doesn't seem to have been any major change in Europe, so it's not worth
re-exploding the lists. I'll try to take opportunity of this quiet weekend to
finish 1.5c...
Eric
