Hi guys.  Our company has need of a SCO guru in Brisbane for a short job.

One of your clients has a Compaq server running SCO Openserver 5.  The
Compaq diagnostic tools are reporting the root filesystem disk as having
problems -ie , it may fail in the future.  Our client would like a new
disk to be installed.  The drives are hot swapable and I have the disk in
the system.

All system drives are attached to a raid controller (IDA) but the root
filesystem is not mirrored (not an issue right now - maybe this will be
fixed later).

Anyway, I'm after someone who can setup the new drive so it contains the
root filesystem and is bootable.  Originally I considered using dd to do
the data transfer but SCO's device setup is sufficiently different to what
I'm used to (Linux & Solaris) that I'd rather not mess with a production
server, hence our need for a SCO guru.  No time to build a test rig and
play around, we need to get the job done.

Could anyone interested reply by mail (this is actually my home address
but I have access to it from work) or call me at work on 3721-4100 and
ask to speak to Rob.  We can then discuss rates, timeframe, etc.

This is rather urgent - I'd like to get this completed within the next few
days, as the client is keen to have this concluded.
Cheers,
	-Rob
