141.0. "MENNOTES packs up and moves to a new home!" by XANADU::COFFLER (Jeff Coffler) Tue Aug 11 1987 02:15

    I've decided to accept a job offer in a new group. MENNOTES will move
    with me. 
    
    On Monday afternoon (August 17th, 1987), at about 5:00 PM, I will
    write-lock MENNOTES and move it to:
    
    	{TAMARA,MANANA,XANADU}::MENNOTES
    
    The cluster doesn't have a cluster node name.  I recommend using TAMARA
    for best response (it's the least loaded of the cluster, I think), but
    feel free to use other nodes in the list if TAMARA is down.

141.1Node TAMARA should be used for NOTES accessXANADU::COFFLERJeff CofflerTue Aug 18 1987 02:0810
    This file is now at it's new home.
    
    Please use node TAMARA to access this notes conference.  Only use
    the other nodes *IF* TAMARA is down (this is rare).  If you must
    an alternate node, please change your entry back to node TAMARA
    as soon as it is available once again.
    
    Send any questions to me or Steve, the other MENNOTES moderator.

141.2xmod checks in!2B::ZAHAREEWorld famous analogies, while you wait.Tue Aug 18 1987 23:1014
    Hi guys!
    
    This IS really revolting.  My ex-wife's name is Tamara.  You really
    don't want me back in here, do you?  
    
    Anyway, I have updated the "Mennotes has moved" message that gets sent
    when people try to read Mennotes on 2B, sending them along this way. 
    Not that it matters to anyone who already knows where the conference
    is. Would you believe I still get 10-20 people per day trying to access
    the file on 2B.   Simply amazing!
    
    Happy noting!

141.5Please use all nodes of cluster to access MENNOTESJAC::COFFLERJeff CofflerWed Jun 29 1988 18:4218
    Based on the usage of our cluster, it would now be better to use
    all nodes of the cluster to access MENNOTES.  Our cluster consists
    of the following nodes:
    
    	MANANA, TAMARA, XANADU, GLIVET
    
    Please pick a node at random to use to access NOTES; this will
    hopefully spread the NOTES load across the cluster evenly.  To change
    your notebook entry, issue a command like:
    
    	MOD ENTRY MENNOTES/FILESPEC=<node>::MENNOTES
    
    where <node> is one of the node names listed above.
    
    	Thanks,

141.7"They" won't let us have a cluster aliasJAC::COFFLERJeff CofflerThu Jun 30 1988 04:1712
    re: .-1
    
    Nope, no cluster alias.  That would be the simple solution.
    
    As I understand it, the data communications people in our facility
    (ZK) don't want anymore routers because there are already a large
    number of them.  Since a cluster alias requires a router ... no
    cluster alias for our cluster.
    
    If the situation changes, I'll post a message here.
