Scheduled maintenance outage Wed June 26 8am-midnight
Central Time

This will affect OSCER's supercomputer only
(NOT OURdisk, NOT OURcloud, NOT OURRstore).

Planned supercomputer maintenance tasks:

(1) Upgrade the Slurm batch scheduler from
Enterprise Linux 7 (EL7) to Enterprise Linux 9 (EL9).

(We'll mostly be using the free variant Rocky 9.)

(2) Upgrade various internal supercomputer virtual machines
from EL7 to EL9.

Hi all,

since both Thang and I are out of office this week, we will need to
cancel this Thursday's and Friday's OSCER help sessions.

Please continue to send us your questions to [log in to unmask], and
we will keep working on them remotely.

Cheers,

Horst

OSCER users,

In case you missed it:

OU President Joe Harroz had an op-ed in the Oklahoman
(newspaper) this past Thursday (May 30):

"To drive Oklahoma’s economy, leaders must embrace
responsible artificial intelligence"

https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.oklahoman.com/story/opinion/columns/2024/05/30/opinion-oklahoma-leaders-must-embrace-artificial-intelligence-now/73736047007/__;!!GNU8KkXDZlD12Q!_NdEJXuNwHP-5CRzKJItIgb4JMH9884EXJX3Xu5E6oi0amVOZGf2mcGxGcez4zITx1hKnA7z-wRg4L_flJgvIFs$ [oklahoman[.]com]

In this op-ed, he prominently mentions the OU-led,
NSF-funded ($20M) National Institute for Research on
Trustworthy AI in Weather.

OSCER is proud to facilitate your computing/data-intensive
research, including your AI/ML research!
