Impact To You: At this time, you may notice latency or brief disruptions when accessing certain on-campus or external resources, especially during peak usage periods.

We appreciate your patience while we work to fully resolve the underlying problem and restore normal network performance. We will provide an update by 5:00PM EST today or sooner.

Research Computing staff members will monitor the status of all computing and data resources in an effort to ensure continuous availability.

Research Computing staff members will monitor the ticketing system throughout the holiday period and answer critical issues and problems. Non-critical user issues and questions will be addressed beginning January 5th, 2026. There will also be no coffee hour consultations during this break.

Scratch file purging (on community clusters with scratch space) will continue as normal during the break, so be sure to archive your files in scratch storage. This does not apply to Data Depot or home directories -- only scratch storage.

Have a wonderful break, everyone, and we look forward to great things in the new year!
