IMPORTANT: Please restart tomcat on your CE immediately

The GOC requests all OSG production site administrators to restart their
Tomcat service as soon as possible!

The IP address of is1.grid.iu.edu changed yesterday - this was part of
the final set of transitions of GOC servers to a new VLAN before the September
2009 machine room move. The CEMon clients running on most OSG CEs have
not picked up this change of IP address - this is a well known bug in
the Tomcat configuration that has supposedly been fixed in very recent
VDT releases (for more information please contact the VDT or file a GOC
ticket). Restarting Tomcat will ensure that your CE uploads data to both
servers is1 and is2.

The GOC has setup a temporary rsync of CEMon data files from is2 to is1
-- this will remain in place for the next 24-48 hours while we monitor
whether all sites have restarted uploading data to is1.
