After having the issues with Guardian nodes coming up with Connection Errors, I sent a few "text pleas" to Jamie & Jenne.

Jamie was available and we eventually discovered this is NOT a Guardian issue:  We Cannot Change any values for many/any systems/frontends!

• EPICS appears to be frozen globally for reading/writing (have tried making changes to ASC, ETMx, ETMy, LSC to no avail).
• ETM screen readback values are all frozen
• There are NO WHITE screens
• CDS Overview shows no obvious issues.

Jamie was wondering if this could be an EPICS Gateway issue, but he then mentioned he's not sure of whether there was a gateway for LHO.

Jenne later chimed in (she was aligning K1) and said this sounds serious and could not help.

Have left a voicemail with Dave.  Richard should be in in a few hours.

H1 is dead until this can be addressed.

(On that note, I'm going to make breakfast/lunch....well, I'll be here in case Dave happens to call within the next 30min first.)
