Most of the NRIS staff is busy with an NRIS all-hands meeting this week, so we will have less capacity to handle support issues. But we will try our best to answer questions.

We need to do a cable replacement on NIRD-TRD Thursday. 10.11.2022. The system will be partly unavailable for a short period of time. Sorry for the inconvenience this may cause.
The maintenance stop will start at 10:00
We will update you as soon as the system is back in production.
Update 10.11.22 – 12:38
NIRD-TRD is back in production, there is still some work going on in the background and until this is done some files in projects stored at NIRD-TRD can be inaccessible until this is done.
A rebuild of storage is running in the background and will continue throughout next week. As a user, you should not be affected, but we apologize for any performance issues that could occur.

Dear NIRD users. We need to conduct some small maintenance along with DDN(vendor) on a small part of NIRD-TRD today at around 11:00.
According to the vendor this operation should not affect the availability of the system.
Update: After a meeting with the vendor we have to postpone this until next week.
We need to power cycle a small part of NIRD-TRD storage tomorrow 27.09.22
This will be done in production and according to DDN(hw manufactor) This should not affect your work. Regardless we want to tell you that we need to conduct some work on NIRD-TRD and if you experience any issues or problems please let us know.
Best Regards
Infrastructure team.
We need to conduct some work on the filesystem controllers for NIRD – TOS. Unfortunately this results in a short unavailability (downtime) period.
All services connected to- and/or utilizing TOS (Tromsø) part of NIRD will be affected. Exported NFS services mounted on FRAM will unfortunately NOT be available either.
The maintenance is set for Thursday 07.04.22 from 09:00-11:00 AM
We are sorry for any inconveniences that may occur. Opslog is updated as soon as the system is back in production.
UPDATE 07-04-2022 – 11:25 … we are still working on the issue and starting to bring the file system up, we hope to back in production soon
UPDATE 07-04-2022 – 12:25 … we are struggling and fighting with the file system, doing our best, we are very sorry for the troubles the issue is causing you
UPDATE 07-04-2022 – 15:35 … the file system is back up and running
We have identified that the NIRD mount is unavaialble on Saga and Betzy and are working on finding the cause and putting a fix in place.
28-03-2022-13:20 – Mounts should be back now, the problem was caused by Friday’s maintenance on network gear …
We hope that the above has not caused too much frustration for you guys and we would like to wish a very nice day to everyone !

Dear NIRD users,
we will have to do some minor maintenance on the file system controllers in Tromsø today.
We don’t expect any major outage but a slight file system performance issue might occur.
Thanks for your understanding
We are working on this issue.
Uninett will conduct a firmware upgrade of the second router in Tromsø this Tuesday, 9th November between 11:00 and 15:00. This will not affect internal networks on Fram, NIRD or NIRD Toolkit or any production on the systems, but external network may briefly disconnect or stall
