Moving of /migrate and /bcmhsm October 16th

Thursday Oct. 16th at 09:00 will /migrate and /bcmhsm be mounted read only as /migrate-old and /bcmhsm-old on both fimm and hexagon.

A new EMPTY version will be mounted as /migrate and /bcmhsm on fimm and hexagon which will be writeable, but empty (except for directories). We will then start the process of moving the files of every user from the old file system to the new. This will be done one user at the time. Each user will be informed individually when all hers/his files has been moved to the new file system.

We would appreciate if users of /migrate and /bcmhsm would clean up their directories before we mount them read only. This will reduce the amount of data to move, hence, speed up the time consuming moving process.

We will keep the /migrate-old and /bcmhsm-old for some time after the moving has been completed. We will come back with a date for the termination of these later.

If you have any questions regarding this, please send your request to support-uib@notur.no

Update Oct. 16th 09:30: The old /migrate and /bcmhsm are now mounted read only under /migrate-old and /bcmhsm-old, while the new empty version are mounted under /migrate and /bcmhsm. We will now start the moving of data from the old to the new.
