My machine seems to be generating a lot of errors with CMS work units. I ran Atlas fine for the previous couple years. Can anyone decode what's going on from the logs?

One of CMS´s job distribution systems had an outage last night.
This is the reason of the 206 errors.
See here for details:

Your host is OK except that you may upgrade your VirtualBox to the most recent version 5.1.x

http://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/cms_job.php will show the current state of the CMS queue. I'm trying to get a procedure in place to minimise the number of reported errors when we have a queue failure (or when I screw up and don't get a new batch of jobs ready in time...).
