****************************************************************************** DORISMail 18-Sep-2003 17:09:34 Message No 0262 ****************************************************************************** Author: Carey Noll Subject: CDDIS Computer Facility Shutdown Author: Carey Noll/CDDIS We have just been told that NASA GSFC will close today at noon EDT and remain closed on Friday Sept. 19 due to the threat from hurricane Isabel. The hurricane is expected to pass through our area this afternoon with possible flooding and severe wind gusts. Therefore, we will shut down the CDDIS computer facility by 1:00 EDT today. The major weather problems should pass through our area by tomorrow afternoon. If possible, we will try to bring cddisa.gsfc.nasa.gov back up tomorrow (9/19) but it may not be until this weekend that we are able to resume operations. We regret the problems the outage will cause but we feel it is in the best interest of the staff and the facility to shut it down since non-essential GSFC personnel will not be permitted onsite to deal with any problems.
