Dear PACE Users,
We are reaching out to inform you that on Saturday at about 10:00am, there was an outage to OIT’s Enterprise Data Warehouse service, which PACE relies on for hosting our database instance that subsequently went down at 11:07am. The impact to PACE from this service outage is mainly limited to administrative side, and there is some impact to user facing utilities such as pace-check-queue; however, there is no impact to users’ jobs or ability to submit jobs.
What’s happening and what we are doing: Currently, OIT is investigating the outage impacting the Data Warehouse service that occurred on Saturday, and this outage is tracked at OIT’s status page. PACE is monitoring this development closely.
How does this impact me: This data warehouse service outage impacts user facing utilities such as pace-check-queue, pace-quota, pace-whoami that are partially or fully nonfunctional. In addition, until the Data Warehouse service is restored, PACE will be unable to create new user and PI account requests.
What we will continue to do: PACE team will continue to monitor this development, and we will report as needed.
Please accept our sincere apology for any inconvenience that this temporary limitation may cause you. If you have any questions or concerns, please direct them to pace-support@oit.gatech.edu
Best,
The PACE Team
