The RCD team wants to remind everyone about our upcoming Winter 2024 maintenance window on December 20thbetween 9:00 AM and 11:59 PM.
While maintenance work is in progress, all RCD services will be unavailable, including Palmetto 2, Open OnDemand, RCD GitLab, RCD Mattermost, and the Indigo Data Lake. Any batch jobs submitted before maintenance that cannot be completed in time will be held in the queue, but all interactive jobs will be canceled. Data transfers will be interrupted, so please complete them ahead of time to avoid possible corruption.
During this maintenance window, our engineers will work on the following:
- Changes to the research network configuration to improve performance. Making these changes will disrupt connections to Indigo storage, so they must be completed during a maintenance window.
- Installation of software updates for RCD GitLab.
- There are no plans to purge scratch space. However, users are encouraged to ensure they do not have any valuable data stored in scratch space, as always.
If you have any questions about this maintenance work, please submit a support ticket.
