It looks like everything is coming together... We have a team assembled (compiled?) to decommission and move a set of KS10 decsystem-10 36-bit machines and the move happens this weekend! I was in attendance earlier today as the machines were shut down for the final time where they have been for quite a few years. I got a picture of the final systat screen, and they stopped timesharing... We then got busy unloading and shutting down all the disk drives. I then shut down the individual boxes and power controllers for the system cabinets and isolated the cabling (they had LOTS of terminal cables). I then raised all the stabilizing feet and used a tie-wrap to attach the panel keys inside the cabinet. I then closed and latched the front doors. I also did the same for the tape drive cabinets. They're all rolling free and ready to go. On friday, we'll be pre-staging all the disk drives, and on saturday we load-out to trucks. I'll be taking more pictures as we go along...
