Accelerator File Systems Upgrade (lnx113 deprecation) - 4pm Monday, July 8

Starting at 4pm Monday, July 8, the following accelerator file systems will be unavailable or read-only for several hours.

• /nfs/acc/user
• /nfs/acc/temp
• /nfs/acc/cesrtacam
• /nfs/acc/vacuum
• /nfs/cesrta

This downtime is required to move the file systems from lnx113 to the CLASSE cluster. To minimize the impact of this maintenance, please follow our recommendations on NetworkedFilesystems (https://wiki.classe.cornell.edu/Computing/NetworkedFilesystems).

General network and server maintenance will occur every Tuesday from 12:00 noon to 2:00 PM. The CLASSE-IT group will always announce any expected disruptions in our NewsLetter and via CLASSE-IT-NEWS-L, but with the size and complexity of our network there is always the potential for something to go wrong. We will do our best to contain all network maintenance and planned outages to Tuesdays from 12:00 noon to 2:00 PM.

Unless other arrangements have been made, CLASSE-managed Windows systems may be updated and rebooted on Tuesday morning at 2:00 AM, so please avoid critical or lengthy operations at that time. For more details, please see SystemExpectations.
