EXTENDED DOWNTIME for Biowulf/HPC November 5-7, 2021
Date: 14 October 2021 11:10:40
From: NIH HPC Systems Staff
There will be an extended downtime of the Biowulf Cluster starting on Friday November 5 at 7 am and running until Sunday November 7 at 6 pm to allow for required upgrades to the HPC storage systems and network.
During this three day maintenance window the following HPC services will be unavailable to users:
- Biowulf login node & cluster
- Helix (the HPC data transfer node)
- HPCdrive
- the NIHHPC Globus endpoint
Note that a batch system reservation will be put in place for November 5. This means that the batch system scheduler will not start jobs that wouldn't end before the start of the reservation. Therefore, you should carefully choose job time limits so as not to unnecessarily delay your jobs. Any running jobs will be terminated on the morning of November 5.
