Downtime Schedules This system is operated according to the ITCS Change Management system. All Non-Emergency downtime will require 2 weeks notice and approval from the Change Management Committee. If Emergency downtime is required an email will be sent to all users informing them of the situation. The system "Message-of-the-Day" will be updated with any downtime schedule or other information. It is possible that during a downtime period, a number of batch jobs may have to be removed. A seperate email will be sent to each user with a job in this state. SGI has gone to a semi-annual upgrade schedule, where major OS distributions are shipped every six months. Academic Use Policy |
