Stu, The server that houses the usagedb database is at 85% full. /dev/sdb1 4.9T 3.9T 746G 85% /var/lib The hardware is from 2009 and is out of support. If this is still to be housed at MCS, we need to start the process of procuring a new machine. Can you help us with that? -- Ken Raffenetti Systems Administration Associate MCS Division - Argonne National Laboratory

A house just came on the market in Bolingbrook and the realtor was only able to get a showing around 3:30. I need to take off early and get Aidan from school and meet Amy at the house. I'll be back online afterwards.
