http://decf.berkeley.edu DECF News Tue, 11 Aug 10:02:00 PST en-us http://www.decf.berkeley.edu/news/090811.html Some DECF servers and clients will be down for maintenance this weekend, beginning Saturday night 8/15 at 11PM and continuing on till Sunday 9AM. To get ready for the upcoming semester, we'll be increasing disk spaces on all the home directories on the file server. The file server will be unavailable while backups are made Saturday night. That takes the longest time. Actual downtime for increasing disk space should be 10-30 minutes for each home directory. We anticipate that most services should be up well before 9AM but are leaving a larger window just in case. As the file server home directories have to be unmounted on all machines, we'll take this opportunity to also patch and reboot all linux clients and some of our servers. Mail and web servers will all be up, to be patched and rebooted at another time. Services affected are: 1171 & 1111 lab machines, Reindeer & Archipelagoes cluster kepler relay.decf (5-10 minutes downtime for patch & reboot) Anyone who has personal home pages or websites under their home directory. Services NOT affected are: Mail services including webmail Departmental web servers or group websites unless they're linked to files on the file server Please log off from kepler or client machines before 11PM on Saturday. We WILL kick you off if necessary. Tue, 11 Aug 10:00:00 PST http://www.decf.berkeley.edu/news/090811.html
