ReSS Collector Maintenance 6-18-2009

The OSG production collector osg-ress-1.fnal.gov will change ip numbers on 6/18/2009. There will probably be some delay for the DNS to propagate to the rest of the network. Also anyone running anything less than vdt-1.10.1v will have to restart their tomcat so that the correct osg-ress-1 ip is used.
