[Kelvin-users] Clusters unavailable, cooling failure in TCHPC Data Centre

[Sean McGrath]

Dear all,

We have been in liason with the Buildings Office and they have asked us to leave the clusters off overnight and the situation will be reviewed again in the morning.

Once again we would like to apolgise for the inconvenience you are experiencing because of this and to thank you for your patience in this matter. Unfortunately it is beyond TCHPC's control.

We will update you again tomorrow when we have more information.

Thanks and Regards

Sean
