Downtime 7/5 - 9/5

We need some downtime in the server rooms Friday May 7. to Sunday May 9.

Status:

09.05.21, 20:45 All hardware moved. Still some cabling and configuration remaining. You can use the nodes that are up. A tired gang (Unni, Kjell, Mikolaj and Torben) signs off for some sleep.

07.05.21, 18:50 Progress according to plan today

07.05.21, 06:30 Starting shutdown of compute nodes

Downtime:

During the downtime we will:

  • Move the rest of the compute nodes from the old to the new server room.
  • The planned Increase in metadata capacity in the storage system is postponed* due to long hardware delivery times.

SInce the planned work on the the storage system is postponed*, you can use the system as normal with the following exceptions:

  • All beehive, euclid, hercules and pleiades nodes will be down
  • owl25 - owl30 will be down

All other compute nodes and workstations will remain up and work as normal. All storage will be available as normal.

We will start shutdown at 06.00 on Friday May 7.

 beehive32-gpu and beehive33-gpu will be retired. A new GPU resource will be available later this year.

*Possible new dates for the work on the storage system is June 11th or 12th. We will come back later with firm dates.
