GPS Community,

SOPAC is migrating it's production database to a new server today.  Many 
web-based applications at http://sopac.ucsd.edu and http://csrc.ucsd.edu 
will be unavailable during this migration.  Furthermore, hourly (near-real 
time) rinex archiving will also be affected (in other words very 
incomplete).

We expect that archiving-related functions will resume within 4-5 hours 
(late afternoon PST) and that most affected web-based applications will be 
back on-line and/or fixed at the same time....or for sure by the end of 
the week.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.  Among other things,
this move will increase the speed and efficiency of many SOPAC services as
well as remove our dependency on older, less reliable, hardware.

Best Regards,

Michael Scharber
