mulan tape robot

[Brendan Kiburg <kiburg@npl.uiuc.edu>]

Hi David,
  We are having data rate difficulties similar to the ones you experienced
near the end of your run.  We can write the data to tape without a
problem, but we can't archive fast enough.  I planned to stop the archiver
for a while and then play back the tapes using the other LTO tape robot
that we have in the mulan barrack, thus allowing for a second,
"remote" lazy archiver.

  I went to mulan and found the tape robot, but saw that it was
disconnected.  I checked the mulan elog and observed that the robot used
to be connected to mulantb05, which was subsequently shipped to
illinois.  Is the card still in tb05?  
  If so, perhaps you could send it back with Dave or Peter, in case we are
still having these difficulties in a week.

Best regards,
Brendan
