| Mailserv - intermittant response | ||
|
Aug 20 2004 - Parts of mailserv are responding intermittantly. We're looking into causes, and will fix asap. |
||
| Mailserv - intermittant response II | ||
|
Aug 20 2004 - We have an intermittant problem with an internal network link between BGRC and SEL. This is causing trouble for half of our mailserv users. We're still working on it. |
||
| Mailserv - intermittant response III | ||
|
Aug 20 2004 - We replaced a broken network switch, so mailserv is fully back in action. Of course, now the mailserv servers are a bit overwhelmed by the flood of incoming mail, but that will settle down shortly. No mail was lost, any incoming mail would have been queued on the mail relay servers, so things will be back to normal very soon. |

| New New machines and Scali downtime for argo | ||
|
Aug 11 2004 - The ACCC has purchased 32 more machines for the argo system. The machines are Sun V60 SunFires with dual 3.0GHz Xeon processors. Twelve of the new machines, named argo12-4 to argo10-1, are in production and available to run jobs. However, the original sixteen machines (called argo4-4 to argo1-1) will be taken out of service, temporarily, beginning Monday. As a result, Scali MPI will not be available. Instead, users of Scali will have to use vanilla MPI. On Monday, any job(s) using the old nodes will be killed prior to shutdown. I apologize for any inconvenience. If you have any questions, please do not reply to this email. Instead, send you question to systems@uic.edu.
