Attending. We don't have a machine room yet so maybe delay a F2F here,
at least until after summer. We have network weakness with storage and
CE split across campus. Will be non-issue in new data centre. We have
2 independent CEs but each is a single instance with single heads etc.
Minimal redundancy in this regard.
