There is a plan to physically investigate the cooling system issues with vendors on the 12th of July 2022. It means that the entire Fram cluster would be switched off and unavailable. It would take at least one full day to stabilize the cooling and take the system back into production. The date might be changed.
Update 11 July 2022 10:40: This maintenance is postponed to at least next week due to transport challenges.
[UPDATE, 2022-05-13 08:00] The maintenance stop is over. There may still be some file system issues. Please report via regular support channels
[UPDATE, 2022-05-11 08:00] The maintenance stop has now started.
The will be a maintenance of the storage system on the Fram supercomputer. The cluster will be unavailable from the 11th of May at 08:00 until the 12th of May at 20:00.
We are currently experiencing issues with the filesystem on Saga. The problem affects the /cluster/software area only. That is why modules are not able to load. /cluster/{home,work,project} is not affected. We are trying to fix it as quickly as possible.
Reduced capacity might be experienced due to planned maintenance of the cooling system. Almost 300 nodes would be excluded from production in order to reduce the general load and provide the possibility for maintenance on the fly.
