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 resourceswhereas in fact, the job has already failed. It is just the sacct command hanging.
We are investigating. In the mean time, use login-2 or login-3 for interactive jobs.
There’s currently an issue with filesystem on NIRD SP, which might affect some dependent services. We are working on resolving this.
Apologies for the inconvenience this might cause!

This maintenance is now starting as planned.
Scheduled maintenances
The entire GPU partition on Olivia (112 nodes) is reserved for a single
large-scale benchmark. The reservation runs from Monday 19 October 08:00
until Wednesday 21 October at 23:59 (CEST).
During this window no other GPU jobs will run on Olivia. Jobs submitted
to the GPU partition stay queued and start once the reservation is
released. In the days before the reservation, GPU jobs whose time limit
would reach into the window will wait until after it, so a shorter time
limit may help...
The yearly maintenance stop of Saga will happen in week 46: Monday November 9 at 08:00 – Friday November 13 at 16:00.
During the stop, the firmware, operating system, storage system and queue system will be upgraded.
If possible, we will open up login nodes, with access to files in the project areas, before the maintenance is over.
Jobs in the queue that would not be able to finish before the maintenance will not be scheduled until after the maintenence is over.
