NIRD-TOS maintenance is active
Dear NIRD and NIRD Toolkit user: NIRD-TOS is currently down and will remain unavailable until Wednesday 12:00. We are replacing all cables during the next coupe of days.
Note that NIRD-home is also not available during that time.
All remote mounts on Fram, Saga and Betzy using NIRD-TOS will be unavailable until downtime is over
Downtime for NIRD-TOS (including toolkit) and Fram 2nd November- 6th November
We will have downtime the following week to try again to replace all internal cables in NIRD-TOS and Fram storage systems.
NIRD-TOS (Including the toolkit) will be down from 08:00 Monday 2nd November to wednesday 4th 12:00
Fram will be down from Wednesday 4th 08:00 until Friday 6th 12:00
There is still a chance that the downtime will not happen, but proper notification will be given in the opslog. Unfortunately the current situation with Covid-19 makes it difficult to make detailed plans.
We apologize for any inconvenience.
Downtime for NIRD_TOS and Fram is postponed
The downtime for NIRD-TOS on 26th October until 29th October is cancelled and the downtime for Fram from 28th October until 29th of October is cancelled.
New dates for the downtime will be announced monday 26th or tuesday 27th.
During the downtime we will replace all internal cables between disk controllers and disk enclosures. The firmware upgrade two weeks ago helped a lot, but we are still seeing ccommunication errors so the decision is to remove all cables and replace them.
Planned maintenance is finished
All services and file systems are now back in operation, including NIRD-Services and NIRD mounts on HPC systems
Please be aware that some projects on NIRD has changed home systems from NIRD-TOS to NIRD-TRD and vice versa.

NIRD – minor HW issue
Dear NIRD Users,
we are forced to replace one of the controllers serving NIRD file system. This operation should not have any impact on the file system. We would like to start tomorrow (19.05.2020) at 8 a.m. CEST.
Have a nice day
