      We’re currently investigating a hardware issue on one of Oak’s storage enclosures. A subset of Oak paths may see brief slowness or intermittent I/O errors while we work through it.

      The affected hardware has been replaced and Oak is now fully operational again. Some files on Oak were inaccessible during this partial outage. Access has now been restored, but processes that were actively using those files may have remained stuck and will need to be cleared by restarting the compute nodes they were running on. As a result, several compute nodes are currently draining, which may delay the start of new jobs. Normal operation should resume once the currently running jobs terminate.

      A hardware-related failure occurred on the storage system that hosts $SCRATCH and $GROUP_SCRATCH. We’re investigating.

      The issue has been identified and mitigated. Full resolution will require a hardware part replacement, which will likely take place tomorrow. In the meantime, the file system is up and running, and jobs should have resumed. We’ll monitor the situation until the hardware replacement is complete, and close this incident when it’s done.
