Scheduled

We will be migrating login-0 and interactive-1 on Thursday, Sep 3rd from 0900hrs. This will require a 30 minute outage of login-0 whilst we restart GPFS there. Any sessions/processes requiring access to the GPFS file systems on login-0 will die. During this outage login-1 will remain available.
interactive-1 will also be affected. It will be drained from Slurm, GPFS restarted, then resumed in Slurm during the same window.
