778.0. "Please" by DICKNS::MACDONALD (WA1OMM Listening 224.28) Tue Oct 06 1987 13:03

    Please do not access PAULY"AMIGA":: between the hours of 7:00 am
    and 6:00 pm EST. There have been too many disk accesses which is
    creating some problems here for people in my group attempting to
    access the laser printer over the network. It can be directly
    attributed to the high volume of file transfers on PAULY"AMIGA"::.
    
    My LOG shows people accessing the directory who have never ever
    written or replied to the notesfile before. Can you believe it?
    Come on out of the Notes closet!
    
    Thanks for your cooperation.
    
    Paul

	Guilty. It took me at least 4 shots at copying files yesterday, I kept getting %xxx-f-bugdaps or some such nonsense while copying files from PAULY. I'm sure this didn't help your system. Is it possible that you have faulty software/hardware contributing to the problem? Anyway, thanks for posting stuff on PAULY! Dave
778.2		AUTHOR::MACDONALD	WA1OMM Listening 224.28	`Tue Oct 06 1987 18:44`	6
	Checkpoint problem. I have a laser printer attached to the machine that reads files copied to a directory on the same disk as the amiga files. The read and write accesses sometimes conflict when the network lines into the pro gets busy. Paul
778.3	alternate location	COOKIE::WECKER	A wholly owned subsidiary of DEC	`Tue Oct 06 1987 19:44`	8
	re: .0 I have copied all of pauly"amiga":: to cookie""::disk$gz_2:[wecker.amiga] if you need a place to copy from during the day (especially people on the west coast). dave
778.4	Hours open???	OASIS2::BERNARD	Have Gun - Will Travel	`Tue Oct 06 1987 20:27`	8
	Woops... I'm guilty also. Maybe it would be a good idea, along with the posting of a new upload, to indicate the hours the system is "open". Thanks, John
778.5	a PRO???	CIMNET::KYZIVAT	Paul Kyzivat	`Tue Oct 06 1987 20:29`	6
	Re: .2 Are you saying that PAULY is a PRO??? Now I understand the problem. Won't they let you have a real computer? Paul
778.6	new home for my archives	MPGS::BAEDER		`Tue Oct 06 1987 22:06`	13
	I also copied all of it using spool (ftsv) don't know for sure when those little suckers actually ran, but... I'm moving all of my stuff to a MVII with a bunch of space...so look in MVCAD3::user0:[amiga...] I'll be happy to provide this as a more permanent home for things if people want to use it to "stash" things...(or at least until we start to fill an rd54! ;-) scott.
778.7	...	LAUSAN::BLANC	Phil Lausanne-CH 7-OCT-1987 16:05	`Wed Oct 07 1987 14:33`	6
	re: .0 So with the time delay(6 or 5 hours) ,for Europe , time access restriction should be from 12:00am or 1:00 pm to 11:00 am ? Am I correct...? Does FTSV also create this overload ?? Phil
