To all fine people out there,

From info I have received today, the Swanwick sector split problem was caused by a network glitch (love that CXSS) – hence they are still running on the new software drop and it is working.

Would love to know how much this has cost – can anyone give me an approximation – but I repeat my earlier comment:
This would not have been a problem ---NO COST/NO DELAY--- if ‘the systems specialist engineer’s’ had been around at the time of the DDC.

Unfortunately this costs a few extra peanuts and the current tight-arse management penny-pinching policy resulted in Fridays situation – nothing else.

The really good news is that management have re-organised these engineers for no other sensible reason than to impress their new owners TAG and in the hope that some will quit to reduce the redundancy count – but heh – it’ll never happen again right!!!!
