New cooling unit

Well! As soon as I wrote a post about the ventilation not working, Dalkia showed up to fix it. (Do they read this blog? Or was it the fact that I called almost every day during the last two weeks to ask when they were coming? (Alerting them to the problem about a month ago)). We now have a new cooling unit in the lab. Please be friendly to it.

Vacation

The manager will be on vacation week 29-30.

Valhall is not feeling well

I noticed on Thursday that valhall is not responding. This is very worrisome! Strangely enough, no disk displays a warning message (though the system itself warns for a faulty disk). We will look further into this as soon as possible. The new ethernet unit yggdrasil has just arrived at the lab, but it will not be started until the ventilation is fixed.

Hermes service

Hermes has announced that they will come and do the yearly service and maintenance on the Hermes machines already today, Monday 11th.

No ventilation

The cooling unit in the lab has broken down (already several weeks ago). I have been trying and trying to get Dalkia to come and install a replacement unit (it is extremely frustrating dealing with the slow workings of maintenance at the hospital at times like these!) Hopefully I will succeed soon... but be prepared that the lab at the moment is very hot.
