23 Oct '09

ISG News has posted a new item, 'Linux Kernel Update' We installed new linux kernels for our systems and the machines need to be rebooted to run the new kernel. We will reboot the D-PHYS Linux Workstation "plimpy" this evening after 06:00 pm, not all the workstations. Please log out this evening before you go home, save all unsaved work and don't start any long running jobs. The terminal server "plimpy" is affected as well, please save all your open documents and log out from your LTSP terminal. Thank you.

[ISG News] Migration Home Directories
by Schmid Patrick 22 Oct '09

ISG News has posted a new item, 'Migration Home Directories' To get more free space for the home directories we need to move to a bigger fileserver. This will be done on Thursday, 29. October, between 18:00 and 21:00. During this time the home directories (winhome, machome, unixhome), the mail services and some websites will be not available. To protect you from losing or corrupting any of your files, we strongly recommend you close all open files on the home directories. Since we have switched to generic names for our services, the home directories will still be accessible the same way as before, so you don't have to change anything.

ISG News has posted a new item, 'Hardware failure - again' Today at 09:50 a crucial server died in our HIT server room. It took us about 20 min to move the affected services to other machines, during which time most of our machines weren't usable. We're sorry for the inconvenience. We're working hard to get rid of this fault-prone hardware.
