Physical Plant scheduled with a short notice a maintenance of water that will affect Grex. Therefore, **Grex will be shut-down on Dec 7 around 4:00 PM ** We will bring it back online next day around noon.
All running jobs will be terminated. A reservation will be set to prevent longer jobs from starting if they cannot finish before the outage. These jobs will show up a message “Nodes required for job are DOWN, DRAINED or RESERVED for jobs in higher priority partitions” or “ReqNodeNotAvailable”
To take advantage of the cluster for the period before the outage, please submit short jobs that should finish before the beginning of the outage. For the jobs that are pending, they should start as soon as the cluster is back online on Thursday morning.
Start Time: 3:00 PM (Winnipeg Time), Wednesday, December 7, 2022 Anticipated End Time: 1:00 PM (Winnipeg Time), Thursday, December 8, 2022
Sorry for the short notice.
