Emergency maintenance
by Paul Elliott 01 Oct '15

01 Oct '15

Dear users, Following on from our recent system upgrades we have experienced some instability on one of our file servers that provides group and scratch group spaces. We believe we have tracked this down to a rapid growth in storage by a number of groups resulting in disk space running low. To remedy this we started emergency maintenance to upgrade the filesystem technology of these group spaces last night that will then allow us to increase the amount of capacity available. Unfortunately this process is still running this morning and is likely to continue throughout the morning. As a result there is currently no access to scratch group spaces. Group spaces are available. To speed up the upgrade of these file systems the cluster is currently disabled, queued jobs will run once the upgrades complete. To minimise the chance of this problem repeating itself in the future we will also be upgrading all the remaining (non-group) filesystems this evening (Thursday 1 Oct) between 7pm and 9am the following morning. All YNiC systems will be unavailable during this time. We apologise for the inconvenience this will cause and for the stability issues over the past few days. Best wishes, Paul. -- Paul Elliott, UNIX Systems Administrator York Neuroimaging Centre (YNiC), University of York

Fwd: Induction at the Imaging Centre
by Gary Green 29 Sep '15

29 Sep '15

Dear all, As of 1st October this year, YNiC is re-introducing an induction procedure for new centre users. This induction will cover various health & safety, organisational and practical issues regarding using the centre. Induction sessions will take around one hour. This induction is mandatory for all new centre users. To ensure this, fobs and IT accounts will not be issued to any new user who has not completed an induction. We have to be able to show the insurers that we have taken action to ensure that all users are aware of the issues involved in using the centre. If you have been using the centre and have not attended an induction event in the past, please do take the opportunity to attend one of the sessions. Dates and registration details can be found at: https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/information/induction For taught courses (MSc / MPsych), we run a special set of induction sessions in the Autumn term. We would encourage new PhD students to also register to attend these sessions. This year, these sessions take place on Monday 5th October.

YNiC Software Upgrade
by Mark Hymers 16 Sep '15

16 Sep '15

Dear all, As announced previously, YNiC staff will be performing a large software upgrade on Monday and Tuesday next week. All systems (including remote desktop) will be unavailable for the duration of the upgrade and the centre itself will be closed to users. An email will be sent to ynic-users once systems are back online and the centre is open. Details of the upgrade can be found at: https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/ITPages/Summer2015Upgrade **Please note that we are changing default versions of a range of software, including some analysis software - please ensure that you have read this email or the page concerned** A summary of the current version of the page follows: =================================================================================== Operating System ---------------- The primary YNiC operating system will change from Debian 7.0 (wheezy) to Debian 8.0 (jessie). The window system in use will remain as XFCE and we do not expect many major changes in the appearance of the system. General Applications -------------------- The following applications will be replaced: * evince (PDF viewer) will be replaced by atril * eog (Image viewer) will be replaced by eom * File Roller (File compression utility) will be replaced by engrampa * Gedit (Text editor) will be replaced by pluma FSL --- The default version of FSL will change to 5.0.8. This is a major change from 4.1. FSL 4.1.9 is still available on the system. Details of how to use a non-default FSL version can be found at docs/ITPages/FAQ/FSL/Versions. Our advice is not to mix and match versions of FSL within analyses, but to start new projects using 5.0. FSL 5.0 includes new atlases and segmentations - these are all installed in the usual location /usr/share/fsl/data. Python ------ python2.7 and python3.4 are available on the YNiC systems. YNiC still primarily supports python2, however we are aiming for a complete python3 system where possible and will attempt to backport any modules needed to support a full scientific software stack on python3. We aim to change our default version of python to python3 from Summer 2016 (subject to all modules being available in time). Taught courses using Python in 2015/16 will use python2, but will aim to use python3 compatible syntax. Python Modules -------------- The complete list of python module changes is available at the page linked above. Matlab ------ The default version of MATLAB is now 8.5 (R2015a). For backwards compatibility, MATLAB 7.14 (R2012a) is also available. MATLAB Toolboxes ---------------- * SPM 2 and 5 remain available at their existing versions. * SPM 8 has been updated to r6313. * SPM 12 has been updated to r6470. R - * R has been upgraded from 2.15 to 3.1.1. * Rstudio has been upgraded from 0.97.551 to 0.99.484. * Various R libraries have been upgraded. Freesurfer ---------- Only freesurfer 5.3 will now be supported. Freesurfer 5.1 has been removed. The exact revision (CVS date) of freesurfer 5.3 will be confirmed before upgrade. The existing pool of automatic freesurfer extractions was generated using freesurfer 5.1. We intend to archive these and regenerate (over the next few weeks) all of the extractions using the updated freesurfer 5.3. =================================================================================== If you have any queries, please contact myself <mark.hymers(a)ynic.york.ac.uk> or Paul Elliott <paul.elliott(a)ynic.york.ac.uk> Thanks, Mark -- Mark Hymers, York Neuroimaging Centre Please note that my email address is: mark.hymers(a)ynic.york.ac.uk Responses to messages sent to other addresses may be delayed

Remote desktop usage
by Mark Hymers 02 Sep '15

02 Sep '15

Hi all, We've recently started seeing people using the remote desktop server to perform large scale analyses. This is just a reminder that it is not for that sort of work. Performing large scale analysis jobs in this way impacts on other users of the system and has caused us to have to kill jobs. Large scale analysis jobs *must* be submitted to the cluster. This is fairly straightforward for FSL jobs, MATLAB jobs, python scripts and most other general tools. There are some examples on the YNiC wiki: https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/ITPages/Cluster https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/ITPages/MRI/FSLCluster https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/ITPages/IT/ClusterMatlab https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/docs/ITPages/IT/ClusterScripts We are going to work on improving the documentation regarding use of the cluster. In the meantime, if you have any questions regarding using the cluster for analysis, please contact either myself <mark.hymers(a)ynic.york.ac.uk> or Paul Elliott <paul.elliott(a)ynic.york.ac.uk> Thanks, Mark -- Mark Hymers, York Neuroimaging Centre Please note that my email address is: mark.hymers(a)ynic.york.ac.uk Responses to messages sent to other addresses may be delayed
