Dgx2-1,2 and 3 are back online now, but I am still working on bringing dgx2-4, 5 and 6 back online. Also, the offline period of the cluster maintenance has been pushed back until Thursday, March 25 at 7am, and will remain offline until Friday, March 26 around 3pm. Another announcement will be sent to confirm that the cluster is back online.

The following maintenance activities will be performed: OS updates BIOS and firmware updates Infiniband updates Slurm update and configuration changes Power redistribution for various compute nodes Miscellaneous hardware maintenance as needed Maintenance activities will begin the Monday after Finals week, and the entire cluster will be offline starting Tuesday the 23th at 8am, and will remain offline until Wednesday the 24th at 4pm. After that, maintenance will continue on parts of the cluster throughout the week. Jobs found running on the Univa cluster by Tuesday morning will need to be terminated, and Slurm jobs scheduled to run into that offline period will remain pending with the message “ReqNodeNotAvail, Reserved for maintenance”. If you wish for your Slurm job to start and finish) before the maintenance period begins, you will need to adjust your time limit accordingly, e.g. to change to 2 days do: scontrol update job {jobid} TimeLimit=2-00:00:00 Alternatively, you can cancel your pending job, adjust your walltime (using the —-time option) and resubmit. If you have any questions or concerns, let me know. Rob Yelle HPC Manager
