Job submission issues resolved: Thurs, 09/21

Job submission problems have been resolved for both interactive and batch jobs.

Issues with interactive job submissions: Wed, 09/20/23

There are problems on compute nodes that prevent job submissions since yesterday (09/19/23). We are working to resolve it.

Issues with Scratch: Thurs, 8/31/23

We are experiencing some difficulties with the scratch file system because a few users have a very large number of files there. We're in the process of addressing this, but in the meantime, you may see "no space on the device" errors when using scratch.

Known remote I/O issue: Mon, June 5

We are aware of the current remote I/O issue on login node 2/3 and are working to resolve it this evening by rebooting the login nodes.
