IT Center Changes

OS Upgrade to Rocky 8.8

July 11th, 2023 | by

Dear users of the cluster,

on

** July 17, 2023 from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. **

there will be a maintenance where we will update the current operating system Rocky Linux 8.7 to Rocky Linux 8.8. The front ends will also be updated, so you will not be able to log into the cluster or access your data.

However, there is an exception to this. The MFA test engine login18-4 will remain accessible, but you will only be able to log in there with a second factor [1]. Temporarily, however, $HPCWORK will also be unreachable here, as the Lustre file system is also undergoing maintenance.

We do not expect that you will have to recompile your software or change your job scripts. So your jobs should start normally after the end of the maintenance.

 

With best regards
Your HPC Team @ RWTH
