VirtualRDC News @ Cornell

from Lisa Dragoset:

RDC10 is scheduled to go down from 6am-8am on 5/12 for CEN16 updates.  If this poses a problem for anyone, please let me know ASAP.

This will impact NSF01 users as well, since login will not be possible for NYCRDC-based researchers.

NX stopped working when NSF01 was rebuilt and the new storage was installed.  After polling the current user base, it doesn’t look like there is a large demand for direct NX access, and we have requested it be uninstalled. [More »]

The software running this site has been updated. Please let us know if you encounter any problems.

To ensure compatibility with NSF01, we have not yet updated the ia64 nodes.

Physical problem with power supply fixed. Sorry for the inconvenience.

We are investigating.

Stata10 and SAS have been updated on all nodes on which the software is installed.

Some of our servers will be rebooted over the weekend in order to implement security patches. Please let us know if this causes a problem.

We have updated the available QWI files to R2008Q1. Data are available at http://www.vrdc.cornell.edu/qwipu/. For registration, please send email to virtualrdc@cornell.edu, stating affiliation and a brief project purpose.
