  • 2017-05-11:  HCC Crane Downtime Planned - May 18, 2017
    Category:  General Announcement

    This maintenance outage for software updates affects Crane only. Jobs which cannot complete before May 18th at 9:00am will be held in queue until the maintenance is complete. A follow-up announcement will be posted when the system is ready for production use.


    To minimize the impact to running jobs we are declaring a downtime for Crane to complete this work. We will use this maintenance window to update various software components across the cluster. The Crane login node will also be updated and will require users to log off. Users will be denied access to the Crane login node until the maintenance is completed.
