Owens

On Wednesday, December 11 from 9am-915am there will be a short interruption of service for OnDemand to deploy a new version of the portal. It will deploy some updates to the web apps and infrastructure. **During this interruption any active shell connections, noVNC connections, and file transfers will be terminated. Afterwards one should be able to reconnect to running VDI and iHPC sessions.** Contact oschelp@osc.edu if there are any questions.

We are having issues with GPFS filesystem (both project and scratch) on all clusters. It started around 3:08 PM, Oct 24, 2019. This also causes the inaccessibility of OSC OnDemand. We are not clear whether there are any job failures due to this problem. We are working to resolve the issue now. We will keep you posted and apologize for any inconvenience. Please contact oschelp@osc.edu if you have any questions.

We are having rolling reboots of Owens cluster including login and compute nodes, starting from October 10, 2019, to update Kernel and root filesystem. The rolling reboots won't affect any running batch jobs, but users may experience longer queue wait time than usual on Owens. A reboot of the Owens login nodes is scheduled at 8AM on Friday, October 11, 2019. The outage is expected to last 5-10 minutes and SSH sessions on Owens will be disconnected during the outage. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. Please contact oschelp@osc.edu if you have any questions.
