VirtualRDC News @ Cornell

Sorry for the short notice, but we have to back out the power distribution changes made earlier this week. The following servers are going to be briefly offline later tonight:

• the web server and all wikis
• repository.vrdc
• vrdc3201.vrdc

The downtime is not expected to be longer than 10 minutes, occurring sometime after 6PM.

We will be switching power supplies on the web server host. The web site might be offline for up to 5 minutes. Thank you for your patience.

We have finished migrating this site, as well as sundry wikis, to a new (and updated) server. [More »]

Lars,
The server is back up and running using the 3PAR as temp space.
Please take a look at it and email me if you see any problems.
Thanks,
Kyle

We will be updating the server hosting the website and the wikis over Thanksgiving. There might be short interruptions to the webserver. We will be locking down the Wikis on Thursday morning. They should be back online by Monday morning.

From the Census system admins:

NSF01 went down on Sunday, November 11, 2007, due to a massive failure of the (single) IO board in the SGI 3700bx2. They are currently rebuilding the temporary filesystems. It is unlikely that the system is up before Monday.
