GBSF 4340 Machine Room maintenance

Event Date

GBSF 4340 Machine Room

Greetings Everyone,

The originally planned replacement of the heat exchangers in our primary cooling systems is postponed due to the unforeseen weather conditions.  When the new timing is determined, Facilities believes that the maintenance may be concluded in one day.  Once Facilities and our team have confirmed that
their work is concluded successfully, we will send out an update.

Meanwhile, we retain a maintenance reservation for the cluster so that any jobs that are estimated to not conclude before the window will not be scheduled to run until after computing resources return.

During the shutdown, we will utilize the downtime to perform some otherwise disruptive networking upgrades, cluster software upgrades, and fileserver upgrades which will include enhanced ransomware protection.

The current dates for the shutdown window are as follows:

Friday, August 21st – Sunday August 30th

During the room-wide shutdown, we will make every effort to maintain internet access for the Genome Center and our Campus Research Core Facilities.  If you have any questions or concerns please email us at helpdesk@genomecenter.ucdavis.edu.

Thanks,
The Research Computing Team
