Oracle DB upgrade on Gruyere

[Xiaokang Pan]

Hi all,

     I am going to upgrade Oracle DB from 8.1.5 to 8.1.7 starting
this Friday. Hopefully I can finish this work before next Monday. So,
the Oracle DBs on Gruyere will be not awailable during this time period
(from Friday morning to Sunday night).
  
     This upgrading work will hopefully solve the problem about contig
viewer crash and improve the DB performance.

     If any people have objections to the upgrading time schedule, please
let me know before Friday.

     Xiaokang
