We are currently trying to resolve the issue, but it is a periodical problem that makes debugging difficult.
Sorry for the inconvenience this is causing.

Stallo – file system problem
Dear Stallo Users,
UPDATE – 27.11/16:20 – we have opened the machine for you guys but there might be some instabilities on global file system as we have also lost one object storage server. The issue is being investigated and we are waiting for some spare parts.
We have some major problems with Lustre file system at the moment. One of the main storage coolers is down. We are kicking out all users now and hope to get the machine back to an operational state ASAP.
Thank you for your patience.
