Subject: Phoenix cluster upgrade
To: CSE System Group <system(a)cse.huji.ac.il>
Dear phoenix cluster users,
The phoenix cluster will be upgraded on Sun 27/10 to debian12-5785 (the
same distribution the lab workstations were recently upgraded to).
Old jobs will be allowed to finish, but phoenix-gw will be rebooted so any
interactive 'srun' jobs will be killed.
New jobs that can't finish until the downtime will not start until after
the upgrade (you can avoid this with the --time-min option, but then the
jobs will be killed on 27/10).
Please test your jobs on the new distribution by adding --reservation=5785
to sbatch or srun so your jobs will run on an already upgraded node
(again, this cannot pass 27/10).
Regards,
System Group.
