Is Pentagon still running on the backup system?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Grassroots Information Coordination Center (GICC) : One Thread

Several articles have been published on the details of the Pentagon spy satellite glitch. However, I did not find any specific information on whether and when Pentagon was already able to remedy the problem and get back to operating the full system. Has anyone any information on that?
