27 Apr '10

ISG News has posted a new item, 'Homeserver Maintenance Downtime' Because of performance problems on our Homefileserver we need to reboot the server tomorrow Wednesday, 28th of April 2010. This will cause a downtime between 07:00 and approximately 07:30. This will result in a short service interruption for the home directories! To protect you from losing or corrupting any of your files, it is best to close all open files on the home directories.

ISG News has posted a new item, 'New computation node plumpy' In order to relieve our Terminal Server plimpy of some of its computational burden, we assigned it a new sidekick specifically targeted at number crunching tasks: plumpy.ethz.ch So if you've been using plimpy to perform calculations in the past, please ssh into plumpy from now on and do your work there. This should make both you and the plimpy users happy. Thank you.

01 Apr '10

ISG News has posted a new item, 'Maintenance Downtime of all Services on Wednesday, 7th of April 2010' On Wednesday, 7th of April 2010, starting at 6pm and lasting until approximately 9pm, there will be several maintenance downtimes for nearly all of our services due to several software upgrades and relocation of servers. So if you're using one of our managed workstations or thin clients, or use data residing on group drives, please save all your work and preferably log out/disconnect before Wednesday, 6pm. And even if the services seem back after the first short downtime, don't expect to be able to work again from that point on since we will have several short but also some not so short service downtimes in a row.
