Hello there,
I made a simple shell script to flip the spin bits. I have not run the 
script on one of the dblast machines because I do not want to screw 
things up. It flips the bits every 10 minutes.  Every 10 minutes, the 
script flips from state 1,6> to 2,5> or 2,5> to 3,4> or 4,5> to 1,6>. 
During the flip, the target status bit (6) is set to 0.  I think I need 
someones approval before I run this thing. What do you think?
Thank you so much,
aki
