Dear All,
Many of the routine updates to our IT provision have been successfully
completed. We will complete the remaining jobs next week. These involve
the stimulus PCs.
The cluster is currently down. This is an issue that is unrelated to the
routine updates and is being dealt with by HP engineers.
Thanks, Paul, for installing these important updates.
As I wrote previously, please report any issues that arise in your use of
the IT system here (other than the cluster issue, which we know about).
This will help us resolve them speedily.
Best wishes
Tony

Dear All,
A few things to update you on that will be occurring at YNiC over the next
couple of weeks.
During the weeks commencing 5th September and 12th September we will be
performing essential IT maintenance. This is the normal annual procedure
to install updates (as specified below). It will impact on access to the
centre and its IT provision as follows.
1) We will be closing the centre from 5pm, Monday 6th September through to
9am, Wednesday 7th September. There will be no access to computing during
this period.
2) For the week commencing 12th September we will have a ‘soft’ closure.
You may come to the centre, but your work may be disrupted by maintenance
of hardware and software. It may also be a period during which we have to
close the centre at short notice.
We should be able to honour scanner bookings during the fortnight, but
again there may be instances when we have to cancel them at short notice.
OVERVIEW OF UPDATES:
We will be updating our desktop and stimulus PC images. This will mean
that software versions will change. We make every effort to check that
these have minimal impact on researchers’ ability to run their analysis and
stimulus code. However, once our updates are made please check your use of
software to ensure it still works.
Thank you for your patience
Tony
