Phoenix Project & Scratch Storage Cables Replacement

Filed under: Uncategorized — Marian Zvada @ 6:02 pm

WHAT’S HAPPENING?
One cable connecting Phoenix Lustre device to controller 0 and second cable to controller 1, hosting project and scratch storage, both needs to be replaced. Individual cables will be replaced one by one and expected time to finish the work will take about 4 hours.

WHEN IS IT HAPPENING?
Wednesday, January 18th, 2023 starting 1PM ET.

WHY IS IT HAPPENING?
Required maintenance.

WHO IS AFFECTED?
Potential storage access outage and subsequent temporary decreased performance to all users.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO DO?
Since there is a redundant controller when doing work on one cable at the time, there should not be an outage during the cable replacement. In case of storage unavailability during replacement becomes an issue, your job may fail or run without making progress. If you have such a job, please cancel it and resubmit it once storage availability is restored.

WHO SHOULD YOU CONTACT FOR QUESTIONS?
For questions, please contact PACE at pace-support@oit.gatech.edu.
