That is a good test. I must admit I have not used rack 3 at all.
I ran the cpi test code on rack 1 (c1-1 to c1-32, c2-1 .. c2-32, and
c4-1 ... 4-32, except c4-2 and c4-19) and it ran fine. It did not run
on rack 3.

You can see the log files in ~combarje/CPI CPI-3 CPI-4

And just after Steve left !!!!!!!!!!@@@@@@@@@$$$$$$$$
