Greetings, rkd has avoided all attempts at contact for several months, and so we have no physical access to the data center.
We're looking for a volunteer in NYC to be given an access card for the data center. Responsibilities would include the installation of new hardware (maybe one visit per year), emergency replacement of failed hardware (seems like once every 18+ months, but you never know when a hard drive is going to fail), and being "on call" at pre-agreed times for maintenance that might cause a machine to be unrebootable remotely. Being able to hop up at 3 a.m. and head over to the data center to reboot wedged machines in an absolute emergency would be nice, but is *certainly* not required -- it costs us around $50 for a technician to hit a power button, but if you have to you have to. As long as I don't jinx it, it's been several years since anything like that happened. Takers? To any members who happen to have a peer1 card already (we never really tracked who had cards, I know there were at least 4 issued and that's about it) -- are any of you still around and willing to be the contact for data center visits? I'd really prefer someone who already has access to use it: we have to pay for new cards / at least one other coop member has definitely met each of the people with cards in the Real World (tm) (a bit more implicit trust...). -- "Karen loved animals.
