Current incidents
Currently, it is not possible to run interactive jobs (salloc) from login-1 on Betzy. It appears that the command is hanging, waiting indefinitely on resources:
salloc -A nn9999k -t 10 -N 8 salloc: Pending job allocation 1754891 salloc: job 1754891 queued and waiting for resources whereas in fact, the job has already failed. It is just the sacct command hanging.

- Text is formatted before sending: Specifically text which is between lines of
#####s, and even some markdown (though unpredictable interval) formatting. - Email that is forwarded to us, alongside with new...
