The outage is being extended until 11:59am. There have been continued issues bringing Radon back into production due to an issue with its connectivity. At the moment, it cannot be said whether this is due to a networking problem or an issue within the Radon internal server configuration.

As previously stated, all other resources are back online and in production.

Update by 11:59a.

Thank you for your continued patience.


We are extending the outage by two hours due to issues encountered with bringing the Radon cluster back into production.

All other resources are back in online and serving at this time.

Will update by 2:00am with status.

Any PBS jobs which request a walltime on Radon which would take them past Friday, June 23rd, 2017 at 5:00pm EDT will not start and will remain in the queue until after the maintenance is completed. The other systems affected do not use schedulers which are directly aware of this upcoming maintenance.
