Hi Pete,
I'm away at (yet) another meeting so won't be able to call in again
and I don't think there's anyone else back at RAL who'll be able to
either. So here's a quick update on status:
> o RAL - Chris
> o new disk space?
No change from last update as far as I know - should start coming
online Oct 4th
> o import of skims
Have all ARTF skims + some others: ~4.5TB have another ~1.5TB spare +
~2TB for staging Tests.
Have just asked RAL Tier A users if there are more skims they want at
RAL.

Still running same version as last week I will probably upgrade to the
current latest on Thursday. We have not seen any problems for a while.
I'll also post out config on Thursday or Friday.
Yours,
Chris.
