NIRD Service Platform Maintenance

We’ll have scheduled maintenance on the NIRD Service platform on 22 and 23 September in order to perform upgrades on the clusters.

In addition to project deployments running on the service platform, the following services are affected during the maintenance:

• NIRD Toolkit
• NIRD Archive
• EasyDMP

The service platform consists of two sites, one in Tromsø and the other in Trondheim. This maintenance will be performed on one site at a time, planned as follows:

22 september: Tromsø
Services running on TOS-SP will be offline. NIRD will be accessible from login-trd.nird.sigma2.no.

23 september: Trondheim
Services running on TRD-SP will be offline. NIRD will be accessible from login-tos.nird.sigma2.no.

To check what site your project is running on, you may log in on the NIRD login-nodes and run the following command: (ssh login.nird.sigma2.no)

readlink /projects/<project number>

Make sure to write the project number in all uppercase.
This will then output the full path to the volume, starting with either “trd” for Trondheim or “tos” for Tromsø.

Example:

[user@login0-nird-trd ~]$ readlink /projects/NS9999K
/tos-project3/NS9999K

The output indicates that this project have it’s primary site in Tromsø (tos-project).
