On Wednesday Sept 3rd from 0800-1800 (ET), the chip cluster will be taken offline.

During this time, DoIT will be making the following changes:

•Changing how chip-gpu's slurm allocations work

•Implement changes that will improve availability of the cluster to users

We will post again when downtime is completed.

General notes for the coming weeks:

As we start the new semester, we expect an influx of tickets from users (both new and old) to come in, please be patient with us as we work through requests.
