Dear TSD-users,

The Filelock service is down at the moment due to the announced maintenance. The open sessions will be killed. We strongly advice not to import/export anything while your session is still open as this might result in the failure of the import/export operations. The service will be back in production around 11:00 CEST. Please follow the operation here!

Regards,

-----------------------------------------------------

Francesca@TSD

we have a maintenance of the TSD filelock on Tuesday 19/04 between 9:00 and 11:00 am CEST. During this time-frame users can import files but the  files will be available on the inside of TSD only at the end of the maintenance. Likewise, users can place files to be exported into the /tsd/pXXX/fx/export area, but the files can  be fetched on the outside after 11:00 am CEST.

We apologize for the inconvenience,

Dear TSD-users,

in order to set in production the new solution for Colossus we need to restart the Thinlinc linux virtual machines, namely the linux machine that are accessible via the Thinlinc protocol. This was not planned but turned out to be necessary. The restart is scheduled for today 11/04 at 18:00 p.m. The linux machines will be accessible again after the reboot. The /cluster/pXX partition will not be visible until after the reboot. The submission to cluster will be available only from tomorrow 12/04 from 11:00 am CEST. 

For more information please check our operational log:
/tjenester/it/forskning/sensitiv/log/

We apologise for having extended the maintenance stop of Colossus.

Dear TSD-users,

the problem is SOLVED and the login to TSD windows VM via PCoIP is available.

Due to a problem connected with the certificate of the Access Point server, the PCoIP login to TSD windows machine is available. Login to the windows servers will be therefore only possible vis ssh+RDP connection (http://www.uio.no/tjenester/it/forskning/sensitiv/hjelp/brukermanual/ssh-og-rdp/index.html). However be aware that the ssh+RDP connection will only work if you did ¡°Log off" from your last session opened with PCoIP. If you didn't, please contact tsd-drift@usit.uio.no.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Regards,

Francesca

Dear TSD-users,

as anticipated today we do maintenance of the TSD infrastructure. The work is organized in such a way that the outage will never be complete, but we are not responsible for possible failures. The submission to cluster is possible but the jobs will queue until the end of the maintenance. We expect to finish in a couple of hours. Please check the operational log for up-to-date info during the morning.

We apologize for the inconvenience,

Dear TSD-users,

Windows issue was fixed 03.06 yesterday after tweaking some DNS settings.

Thanks to Erik, Dag-Erling, Francesca and the TSD-team.

...since today 02/02-16 at 16:00 pm we are having network issue affecting many windows project servers and windows admin servers inside TSD. The cause of the problem has been identified this evening and will be solved as soon as possible during tomorrow (03/02-16) morning. However at the moment the project windows VMs are not reachable neither by using Horizon View nor by using the old shh+RDP methods. Users can instead log into the linux servers by using the thinlinc protocol. At the moment of writing we do not know whether the problem has affected the colossus infrastructure. More info will come during the day of tomorrow (03/02-16)

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Francesca@TSD
