Kappa, Matter and Neolith are now available.

As planned, the /nobackup/global filesystem was increased in size. We have
no reason to believe that any files on /nobackup/global were affected by
the file system problems on /home.

Regarding the unplanned file system problems on the /home file system:

We have copied the contents of the old /home file system to new disks. Out
of 14 million files, there are 155 files that we definitely know have been
damaged.

We will contact the users who owned the 155 damaged files separately later
today or tomorrow. The damaged files have either not been copied to the new
/home at all, or have been renamed and given the suffix .MAYBEBAD-20111124
to prevent anyone using them by mistake. We will attempt to restore the
damaged files from tape backup and notify the affected users about our
progress.

IMPORTANT FOR ALL USERS: We cannot guarantee that only 155 files were
damaged. If you notice files or directories that are missing, have the
wrong data, wrong size etc, please contact support at nsc.liu.se immediately.
Do not change or delete any damaged files - we need to investigate them!


NSC apologizes for the inconvenience,
