Fabian Service Outage – Monday 20th May 2024

There will be a short outage to the Fabian service on Monday 20th May 2024 at 18:00. This outage will last for approximately 1 hour. During this time, you will not be able to access the service. Any jobs running will continue to run. All desktop sessions will be stopped and any applications running will close, please save you work before the outage.

During the change we will replace the cluster. The existing cluster will be kept until all jobs on it have completed. We will add a new filesystem which will become the default for projects and home directories. Existing project and home directories will be migrated to the new filesystem over the next few months, as and when they are not in use. We will also be updating the desktop service.

These changes will improve file performance, provide more of the most used compute servers, and help us manage service costs.

Trusted Research Environments and Secure Nodes will not be affected by this outage.
