Re: I5 systems in production

[Larry Bolhuis <lbolhuis@xxxxxxxxxx>]

We have several i5's in production at customer sites. Only issue so far 
was a DOA FC #0595 (clearly not the i5's problem) and one i5 that dumped 
a power supply while the system was powering down that caused the FSP to 
go vegatative. (Hmmmm, actually in an 0595 again... ) Luckily the 'P' 
side of the FSP code was good and recovery was quite easy. I'd vote for 
redundant power across the board but other than that no problems to 
speak of.
