The Hammer, Rice, Scholar, and Snyder clusters will be unavailable beginning at Tuesday, April 11th, 2017 at 8:00am EDT, for scheduled maintenance. The clusters will return to full production by Tuesday, April 11th, 2017 at 11:59pm.

During this time, Hammer, Rice, Scholar, and Snyder will have the operating system patched, the PBS resource management system upgraded, and maintenance performed on the Lustre scratch filesystem.

Any PBS jobs which request a walltime which would take them past Tuesday, April 11th, 2017 at 8:00am EDT will not start and will remain in the queue until after the maintenance is completed.
