[Labs-l] Rolling reboots today (update)

[Andrew Bogott]

Update:

Most, but not all, labs instances have now been restarted.  Those 
instances essential for Tools operation are working -- some tools are 
back up, but those that depend on web access are still failing.  Yuvi is 
working hard on this issue.  Coren is unfortunately out sick, so it's 
difficult to predict when he'll be available to assist.

One of the hardware nodes, virt1009, is suffering a serious OS problem, 
so VMs local to that host are still shut off.  We're working frantically 
on resolving this issue and I'll update you as soon as there is any news.
