The HSM filesystem for Bjerknes /net/bcmhsm - mounted from jambu - (NB: symlinked for some from /migrate) is currently not accessible on tre,to,en due to a nfs-hang that seems to be related to a nfs-client bug. We are looking into the problem. It could be that we have to reboot some or all of the machines to clear the nfs-hang. For urgent access to files: contact support-uib@notur.no and we will get the files from backup.

Scheduler / passwd problems on fimm

New NOTUR cpu-quota
CPU-quota for the period 2006-1 has now been activated on tre,fire (and fimm). Send a request to support-uib@notur.no if you (incorrectly) have wrong quota access. Please note that according to prior agreements the projects nn1118k, nn2343k, nn2701k and nn2980k on fire has been transfered to fimm with a cpu-factor of 4:1. Other projects on fire need to send a request to move any quota.
