Link to update at January 22, 2019 2:50pm EST UPDATE:

As of 1:30pm, engineers have completed maintenance and have returned the Brown and BrownGPU clusters back to normal service. All queues have been enabled and jobs have resumed scheduling. Please report any issues to rcac-help@purdue.edu

Link to original posting ORIGINAL:

The Brown and BrownGPU clusters will be unavailable beginning at Tuesday, January 22nd, 2019 at 8:00am EST, for emergency maintenance. The cluster is expected to return to full production by %enddatetime%.

During this time, Brown and BrownGPU will have critical security patches made to the operating system.

Any PBS jobs which request a walltime which would take them past Tuesday, January 22nd, 2019 at 8:00am EST will not start and will remain in the queue until after the maintenance is completed. Any jobs which are still running at Tuesday, January 22nd, 2019 at 8:00am EST will need to be terminated. Unfortunately, due to the critical security nature of the work, these patches cannot be postponed to allow for normal job completion.
