We've identified the problem that caused this morning's outage. It
seems that when amprgw is rebooted, as it was this morning to apply
a kernel security patch, the machine comes back up just fine, but
the Ethernet switch it's plugged into crashes.
There's been a project to replace that switch with a 10 GbE switch
(already on hand, I'm told) for some months; I'll see if maybe we
can get a little higher priority on the installation now that we
know the old one is a problem source.
May you live in interesting times....
