The RCD team has scheduled a brief maintenance window at the end of the Summer 2024 semester.
The maintenance work will begin on Monday, August 12th, 2024 at 9:00 am. All RCD services, including the Palmetto Cluster and the Indigo Data Lake, will be unavailable until the maintenance work is complete.
During the maintenance period, we plan to complete the following:
- Our system administrators will perform critical updates to the network and storage systems for Palmetto 2.
- These updates will improve performance and stability for all users on the cluster.
- These changes are not directly user-facing and should not break any existing user workflows.
- Slurm will be updated to a new version.
- Packages built with MPI will be updated to link with the updated Slurm MPI libraries.
This page will be updated with more details about the work completed after maintenance is over.
Users should expect that RCD services will be restored no earlier than Wednesday, August 14th, 2024 at 9:00 am and should monitor email for updates from RCD.
Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions or concerns that you have about this notice by submitting a support ticket – our team would love to hear from you!
