Extended outage of 40core Pitzer nodes March 13, 2023
Beginning Monday, March 13, 2023, at 7 a.m., OSC will be taking the 40-core Pitzer nodes offline to replace the liquid cooling unit. We anticipate this work may take until Friday, March 17 to complete. We are working with our vendors to reduce the outage duration as much as possible.
System Downtime March 14, 2023
A downtime for OSC HPC systems is scheduled from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., Tuesday, March 14, 2023. The downtime will affect the Pitzer, Owens and Ascend Clusters, web portals, and HPC file servers.

OSC enables Globus High Assurance storage endpoint
A new High Assurance Globus endpoint for OSC will be deployed to manage protected data on February 2, 2023.
This will affect current projects at OSC which use Globus to manage their protected data. These projects will need to use the new High Assurance Globus endpoint to access their data. The name of the new endpoints are OSC /fs/ess High Assurance for project storage (/fs/ess) and OSC /fs/scratch High Assurance for scratch storage (/fs/scratch).
