End-Of-Month actions
The usual monthly maintenance. There is little time to fulfill it all, and some updates need to be installed as well, so the big bunch will be done later this week.
First: the mal statistics for August:

The main activity tonight has been the archiving of operator and service logfiles. Well, that’s actually most of the work. But some check on the system health needs to be done some time soon, since the sysgen parameters have changed a few weeks ago (well, a few months ago, in fact). But as the system seems to run nicely, for it’s size, there is no reason why it couldn’t be extended some tome more.
