2021/03/24: Cluster maintenance announcement

An operation in our hosting facility is planned for the 29 and 30th of march. While the we interface and sftp should mostly stay online, we will prevent any download/processsing/copy request that could be impacted to start.

Request that may run in this period will stay in queue until the operation is finished and will automatically start when it is safe for them to do so.

UPDATE 2021/03/30: The maintenance has been completed, the cluster is back online and started processing requests.

UPDATE 2: it seems our storage system was also impacted -- we're putting MarsSI in maintenance.

UPDATE 4: interrupted jobs have been resubmited, the cluster is working again.

2020/10/01: Multiple news

We suffered a few power outages in the last days, but the platform is fully back online, and interrupted jobs have been restarted. We apologize for this, we have plans to improve this situation, stay tuned!

We also started a new call for publication filling on the wiki. Last call was not so long ago, but we decided that October would be a nice yearly period to do so, and did not want to leave a 1.5 year wait. Note that those who filled their wiki page this spring have not been contacted :)

Finaly, we have a presentation at EPSC2020 later in the day!

MarsSI got a new logo: the red planet, being processed by our platform. Do you like it?
