[Freja-users] Urgent software update on Freja login node 11:15 CET

[Fredrik Nyström]

Dear Freja users,

we need to update nvidia graphics drivers on Freja login node.

We will try to do this without kicking out users and without reboot.

ThinLinc sessions and terminal logins should not be affected.

Any process using GPU on login node (typically "vglrun <some program>") 
will be killed and we will send separate email about this (currently 
one user and one process affected).

(If the attempt to do this without reboot fails we will schedule a 
regular downtime for later today.)

Kind Regards
