Serious storm coming to LI on the weekend.
Those who couldn't make our NPPS BBQ at Maxim's on Sun 22nd, you may have another opportunity, we're exploring a postponement!

Hi All,

The SDCC is making plans for the expected arrival of Hurricane
Henri to the Long Island area. Based on our experience with
Irene (2011), Sandy (2012) and Nemo (2013), we plan to continue
operating normally through the storm. Most of equipment at the
SDCC has power back-up (UPS, FlyWheel, generator and combinations
thereof), and is additionally protected by a temperature-based
(graceful) shutdown mechanism, independent of WAN connectivity
to/from BNL.

A subset of our resources that is based on utility-power only.
An unexpected power outage will knock them out. If we have root
privileges to these systems, we may consider shutting them
gracefully on very short-notice (ie, an hour or less) for
precautionary reasons, under the guidance of BNL operations and
safety coordinators and if the situation calls for that. If we
don't have root privileges, you will need to shut them down
yourselves.

If you would like us to pro-actively shut down equipment (where
we have root privileges) ahead of the storm, please inform us
(racf-management-l AT lists.bnl.gov) by 1 pm, Saturday, August 21.

SDCC staff will be on stand-by to insure service continuity
and to react to storm-related interruptions as needed.

Tony
