TL;DR: The move took place successfully (?) but osstest is still
unavailable. :-/

Since the move of the DB server there seems to have been some issues
with the (unrelated) filer which supplies storage to the server hosting
the controller VM which is causing the VM's rootfs to go read only about
once a day. I've rebooted it again this morning but TBH based on recent
history I don't expect it to survive until tomorrow.

Separately there seems to be some sort of new issue with the PDU control
software (which may or may not relate to the db move since PDU control
is via the DB), so when the VM is up and running it isn't able to
actually do much which is useful.

I'll be looking into both of those with some urgency on Monday since
there isn't much I can do from here. In the meantime I don't think there
will be much in the way of useful test results.

Ian.
