Resolved - This outage is closed, Lib2 is back in usual operation. Thankyou.
Aug 7, 08:33 AWST
Investigating - The Banksia service is currently in a degraded, “at risk” state as it is operating with only one tape library instead of the standard two. As a result, the alternate copy of files on tape will be unavailable for staging or archiving until Library 2 is restored to service. The primary copy is still available for all data so this should not impact the Banksia offline files service. If you experience any issues accessing data please let us know at help@pawsey.org.au

Update - Internal testing has passed. A number of additional services are being brought up. We hope to close out maintenance early this morning.
Aug 6, 08:22 AWST
Verifying - HPE have handed Setonix back to Pawsey.

Staff have begun startup operations. We hope to have it available for internal testing by 9 AM tomorrow morning.

Aug 5, 15:59 AWST
Update - HPE have completed the upgrade to the interim version of HPCM, and have commenced the upgrade to the final version of HPCM.

In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.
Aug 3, 17:00 AWST
Scheduled - HPE will be upgrading the management plane for Setonix which requires a multiple day outage.

HPE will commence by backing up internal services starting Monday, August 3rd at 5 PM.

HPE will then perform the upgrade over Tuesday and Wednesday, handing back Setonix to Pawsey sometime on Thursday, August 6th.

Pawsey plans to return Setonix to service by 5PM, Thursday, August 6th (or sooner).

Please note the scientific software stack will be unchanged and default Cray Programming Environment will remain the same.

If you have any questions, please contact help@pawsey.org.au.

Scheduled - The ASKAP Ingest cluster will be offline from 8 AM on Tuesday the 4th August until 5 PM on Wednesday the 5th August.

This is to allow HPE to upgrade the E1000 which provides the ASKAP ingest filesystem to be upgraded to the latest supported version of NEO.

If you have any questions, please contact help@pawsey.org.au.
