[Krypton-users] Krypton service stop 2014-08-26 09:00-13:00

[Peter Bortas]

Due to required maintenance to the electrical system in one of our
computer rooms, we will have to shut down all Krypton compute
nodes and the attached /nobackup/ storage for a few hours on
August 26th.

Start of downtime: 2014-08-26 09:00 CEST
Estimated end of downtime: 2014-08-26 13:00 CEST

Queued jobs that have requested enough time that they cannot finish
before the downtime will not be started. E.g 7 day jobs cannot start
if there are less than 7 days remaining before the stop.

If you need to run jobs in the week before the downtime, you might
need to shorten your jobs.

Jobs that are in the queue before the downtime will remain in the
queue, and will be started normally after the downtime.

Hint to low-priority projects: short jobs will find it easier than
usual to run in the days immediately before downtime, as they don't
have to compete with longer jobs.
