ff1-raid1 to be moved to PP

Next week on 12/28 we will move ff1-raid1 from ECS to PP. This move will mean that all AFS home storage will be redundant between buildings, a first for the campus! This means not all data is lost if the ECS building were to go up in flames.

No user-viewable disruption should be seen, as the missing array will be automatically handled by the mirroring on our Solaris AFS servers. ff1-raid2 will remain in the ECS data center. Once ff1-raid1 is back on the fibre channel fabric in PP, the mirrors will automatically resync and the AFS home server network will return to a nominal state.
