Completed -
All primary systems have been returned to service. Pawsey staff are still working on ancillary services, which we hope to have operational soon.
Setonix was returned to service last night. It has been updated to the latest available "Extended Support" version of the Cray Operating System which provides bug fixes and security patches.
The 2022.11 Pawsey software stack has been removed from /software as per normal operating procedures.
The CARTA service provided by the Setonix system is one of the ancillary services being worked on.
The purge policy on /scratch will be reinstated at 5 PM, Friday 7th February 2025. Any file which hasn't been accessed in 21 days will be removed.
Thank you for your patience. If you require any assistance, please reach out to use via help@pawsey.org.au.
And a big shout out to the CSIRO Building staff. You guys are rock stars.
