Edit 2022-04-11 15:20 : We cancelled the maintenance and it won't happen anymore this or next week. When it will, we'll put up a new notice. Sorry for the false alarm.
The Windows shares under \\leo.hpc.uib.no\gfi and \\leo.hpc.uib.no\skd are at the moment inaccessible.
We are working on it.
We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Update 2022-03-25 17:12 : The shares are available again.
Best regards,
The IT department and the Scientific Computing Group
Dear users of cyclone,
cyclone.hpc.uib.no is inaccessible at the moment.
We will probably need to restart the system.
More information will follow during the course of today.
edit 2021-09-15 13:00: Because of unresponsiveness of the system we needed to restart cyclone.hpc. We do not know the cause yet and are still looking into it. You can use the system again. Please, let us know if it looks like there is still something wrong with cyclone.
Best regards,
The IT department and the Scientific Computing Group
Dear users of cyclone,
We will have an emergency downtime until further notice because of
issues with the Lustre filesystem on cyclone.hpc.uib.no. Please, save
any work and log out.
Feel free to contact us via hjelp.uib.no if you have any questions.
Apologies for the inconvenience.
Update 18.06: cyclone is up and running.
Yesterday we thought that there might be something wrong with the local Lustre filesystem, which includes /home and /Data/gfi/stormrisk.
To reduce the risk of data loss, we brought the systems offline.
However, everything appears to be working reliably after all.
In addition, the backup of /home does not always finish.
We are still looking into this problem, but you may login and use cyclone again.
Best regards,
The IT department and the Scientific Computing Group
Dear users of cyclone and Ubuntu,
A large part of the data under /Data/ is being migrated to the central
IT department storage place. To finish the migration, this Tursday
between 9:00 and 15:00 paths below /Data/ won't be accessible all the
time (or at least not writable).
Hereafter, on both the Ubuntu clients and on cyclone, all your files are
still available under the regular /Data/gfi and /Data/skd paths you're
used to.
On Windows the new locations will be as follows:
\\klient.uib.no\FELLES\MATNAT\GFI \\klient.uib.no\FELLES\MATNAT\SKD
For your convenience, you can map each to a drive letter by following this HOWTO.
On the Wiki there is more detailed information on GFI & SKD Storage.
Feel free to contact us via hjelp.uib.no if you have any questions.
Update 28.05 : The data migration is finished and all Linux and Window paths with the new destinations should be accessible.
Best regards,
The IT department and the Scientific Computing Group
Dear grunch and cyclone users,
Last Saturday there was an unexpected powercut in our machine room at Thormøhlensgate 55.
As a consequence, cyclone and grunch were shutdown at about 15:40, then came up again around 17:50.
We are sorry for the inconvenience and do our best to minimise downtimes.
Best regards,
The Scientific Computing Group
