Re: (ASCEND) Quiescenting PRIs


 Well, I can see where shawn's frustration is coming from, Myself, I've
been down the same road as shawn with battling in getting these boxes
stable, Hell, I'm still having Wan Pool leakage problems that I first
reported back in October, thus I have to reboot my boxes once every
three days, (This is not a good thing), 

Although, I've worked closely with Stuart Monks and I'm quite happy to
say he's probably the best thing that has happened to the TNT program, The
responses I have seen from the TNT engineers is a lot better that I had
seen from the MAX side of the house in the past 6 months.
