Savio Downtime: 8AM Fri, 7/4 - 5PM Mon, 7/7

We plan to work over the weekend, anticipating a return to service by 5PM on Monday, 7/7. During the downtime, you will have no access to the Savio cluster or be able to run jobs. A Slurm reservation is in place, so please make sure that you complete your jobs within the proper walltime; otherwise, your jobs will wait in the queues until the downtime is over.
