Planned Network Maintenance on Thursday August 24, 2023

To the HPCf community:

Tomorrow, Thursday August 24, 2023, the HPCf’s network will undergo maintenance in order to migrate the HPCf’s circuit from Claro to Liberty.  The migration will be carried out starting at 8:00 am. During the maintenance window, HPCf and IX-PR services will experience a short interruption.

We apologize for the inconvenience this maintenance may create.

Thank you for your understanding.

Boqueron Back Online – June 22, 2020

Boqueron’s replacement switch has finally been installed and Boqueron is back online. Users should be able to log back in and use the cluster normally.

Before resuming your work, we invite you to take a few moments to back up all your data currently on Boqueron. Please remember that, per our Storage Policy:

Boqueron is not meant to provide reliable long-term storage. We do our best to keep users’ data safe, but by making use of the HPCf cluster (and HPCf systems in general), users agree that they are the ones ultimately responsible for keeping their own data safe, including keeping their own backups outside of HPCf systems.

We thank you for your patience during this outage and we apologize for the impact it no doubt had on your work. As always, please send any questions or comments to help(at)hpcf.upr.edu, and we will gladly get back to you.

About

The High Performance Computing facility of the University of Puerto Rico is presently developing a technology and service infrastructure for the research and education community of the University.  This infrastructure is built from the following components:

  • Advanced Research Network
  • Core High Performance Computational Resources
  • Services in Support of Users of Computational Resources
  • Standards and Architecture
  • Evaluation of Emerging Technologies

Some common tasks:

Use of HPCf resources requires that you acknowledge our sponsoring institutions: the University of Puerto Rico and the Institutional Development Award (IDeA) INBRE grant P20 GM103475 from the National Institute for General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), a component of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Bioinformatics Research Core of INBRE.
