Aquila HPC facility not available until Wed10 Oct 2012

The Aquila HPC facility will not be available until Wednesday 10 October 2012. Over the next few days we will be updating the HPC wiki pages with notes on how to use the new queuing system.

Adaptive Computing have spent three 11-hour days assisting us with the installation and configuration of the new scheduling system on the Aquila HPC facility. During these days we have made a lot of progress and resolved several unforeseen issues. However, there is some additional work remaining which largely involves systematically testing different queuing scenarios to ensure that the configuration is stable and is correctly scheduling the jobs.

This testing will be performed over the new few working days and during this time will have direct access to the support team and senior consultants from Adaptive Computing to assist with any complications which arise

We thank you for your patience and are sorry for any inconvenience this extended maintenance and upgrade has caused.
