    keyword=re: R-arm IOC freeze on swing

    During swing shift, the new audible voice alarms that warn if an
    IOC is "frozen" worked, in the sense that they spy on certain
    EPICS variables which the start-of-run indicate are "Invalid
    channel name". But from Larry Weinstein's observations, it seems
    that sometimes the magnets and the GUI are fine despite this
    symptom. In his case, the symptom eventually disappeared
    about 30 min after his last reboot. What does it mean ? Are
    the alarms false ? I don't know. But if you think it's a false
    alarm it's easy to disable & re-enable the alarm: see the note
    hanging above adaql8 (shift leader) screen, also ~adaq/alarms/README
