February 2021 Maintenance

On Wednesday, February 3, 2021, MSI staff will perform scheduled maintenance and upgrades to various MSI systems. Primary Storage, Mesabi, and Mangi will be unavailable throughout much of the day.

A global system reservation will start at 5:00 a.m. on February 3. Jobs that cannot be completed before 5:00 a.m. on February 3 will be held until after maintenance and then started once the system returns to production status.

February maintenance will include:

  • Cluster system updates
  • New versions of SLURM/batch
  • Login nodes being retired
    • Users will now begin connecting to cluster nodes directly, by connecting to mangi.msi.umn.edu, mesabi.msi.umn.edu, etc.
  • Stratus subscribers: s3cache being decommissioned
  • HKL licensed node is decommissioned

Systems status is always available on our Status page

If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact the MSI Help Desk through our online Support Request Form or via email to help@msi.umn.edu.
