SUG@R is back online, 7/18 11AM

The fileserver that provides home and projects directories is back online. SUG@R is now functioning normally and is accepting new jobs. If you were logged in to one of the login nodes during this time, please be aware that we had to terminate all of the login sessions in order to restore functionality to the login nodes.
Jobs that were already running on SUG@R are continuing to run though everyone should check on the status of their jobs to make sure they are still running correctly.
While we are still analyzing the source of the server failure, I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that you should *not* use $HOME (/users) and $PROJECTS (/projects) for job I/O. These filesystems are not designed to handle I/O from running jobs and are intended for permanent data storage only. You should be using scratch storage for job I/O. Please find more information about this topic in our Intro to SUG@R guide on this web site. Please report any problems to the Help Desk.

We are experiencing a problem with the SUG@R file server that provides home directory service. SUG@R will not be functional until this service has been restored. We will send more information as it becomes available.
