On Wednesday, March 2, 2022, MSI staff will perform scheduled maintenance and upgrades to various MSI systems. During this month's scheduled maintenance period, primary storage may be unavailable or in a read-only state throughout much of the day. Mesabi and Mangi front-end nodes will be unavailable some portion of the day.
A global system reservation will start at 5:00 a.m. on March 2. Jobs that cannot be completed before 5:00 a.m. on March 2 will be held until after maintenance and then started once the system returns to production status.
March maintenance will include:
- After the maintenance completes, all ssh connections to the cluster front-end nodes will require 2-factor authentication. See the previous announcement on our website.
Systems status is always available on our Status page.
