UPS Maintenance in SDH 158

by

At 11 AM today we will be replacing batteries and performing maintenance on a faulty UPS located in our primary server and network room for Sutardja Dai Hall. No service interruptions are expected. However, in the event of a failure, there may be a ~5 minute loss of wired and wireless networking in Sutardja Dai Hall, as well as a loss of the NetApp network file storage for the EECS Instructional Labs. The maintenance is expected to last for approximately one hour, but two have been allotted in case of complication.

cluster.eecs ran out of inodes

by

cluster.eecs ran out of inodes at 4:12am. We’ve increased the number of inodes by 20%. To prevent this problem in the future we will monitor the inode usage in addition to the space usage and adjust the inodes available before it runs out again.

Network cable switchover and disk upgrades for IRIS file servers on June 4th at 3pm

by

On 3:00pm, Tuesday, June 4th, 2013, the network cables for cluster.eecs and inst-fs.eecs will be replaced in an effort to create more easily managed infrastructure. In addition, disk upgrades will take place on all department filers to increase available space. Minimal interruption of service is anticipated. NFS and CIFS mounts should reconnect automatically, although some windows mounts may need to be re-mounted. Maintenance may extend as long as 5pm, though system interruption should be a very short part of this window.
