The Panasas storage server started responding slowly approximately an hour ago. We are using this server to host all of the software stack, and also for the “scratch” directory in your home folders.
No jobs have been killed, but you will notice significant degradation in the performance. Starting new jobs/commands will be also slow, although they should run.
We are actively working with the vendor to resolve these issues and will keep you updated via this blog and the “pace-availability” email list.
Thank you for your patience.
