Dear all,

As you may know, due to complications with the availability of parts, the planned power-down at the Biocentre last month did not occur.

Due to this, on Wednesday 29th July at 6pm, the power to the Biocentre will be temporarily cut off. We will therefore have to shut down all YNiC services including the desktops, cluster, servers, web servers and so on. YNiC will therefore close at 1700 to allow staff time to shut all services down in a clean manner. We also suggest that people refrain from submitting jobs to the cluster on Wednesday afternoon as any which are on the cluster when we have to shutdown will be cancelled. We anticipate that power will return at about 9pm.

A seperate notice will be sent out by Paul regarding the psychology mail server.

Thanks,

Mark
