gilgamesh: cluster update - mostly back on line

[John Kitchin]

Hi all,

I believe the cluster is back on line. I was not able to save all of the
data, and some people lost everything in their home directory. You will
have to trust me that I spent the last two weeks trying to save what we
could.

I have logged in, and nothing obviously wrong or funny happened. I do not
know what you will see. There may be a log file in your home that shows
what files were not saved.

When you log in, if you get an error about no home directory existing,
please send me a note, and I will make a new one.

I have not turned the compute nodes on yet, and I plan to do that on Jan 5.
I am still verifying the setup works, and there may still be maintenance to
do. I do not want to complicate that with running jobs yet. I would use
this time to think about an effective backup plan if you don't already have
one.

I will be offline from 12/26 to 1/3, so if you need anything, please let me
know before then. Otherwise, I will address it when I return.


John
