I

services.

back

says

> The status.sav file had the new server in it but not in status.log.
> After a few minutes, it rolled out of the status.sav file.

> If I refresh the Service Detail or Host Detail page, the new server
will

dropps

> 
> I've flushed the disk/memory cache from my browsers and just like the
