Mix Up With The Iseries Servers
08/27/2009
Somehow there were four iseries servers installed into the local library when they were supposed to go into the post office. No one knows how the mix up happened but hopefully it will get straightened out soon. I heard that the postmaster is livid.
He ended up with used bladecenter servers that are older than a dinosaur. That is what he said, and the newspaper quoted him on it. It is now the town joke; everybody had been saying they are older than a dinosaur.
I guess that somehow the work orders came through email and the printer printed them out of order. The first one was supposed to be for the post office and four iseries servers and the second was to be for four used bladecenter servers for the library.
I would guess that we taxpayers will be footing the bill to have them put in the proper places, even though it was not our fault. No one ever pays for their mistakes anymore, it is very frustrating. If my taxes are raised again this year, I will contribute it to the mix up of the iseries and bladecenter servers and make sure that it is reversed. I would think that all of us that are older than dinosaurs feel the same way.
