* During the lab closure times, compute servers, gradx.cs.jhu.edu, gradz.cs.jhu.edu, ugradx.cs.jhu.ed, and ugradz.cs.jhu.edu  '''''will continue to be available remotely''''', via SSH.
 
 
* We have to take down the lab systems late that Friday afternoon.  At the end of the ACM contest that Saturday night, the coordinators of that contest will be turning our lab computer systems back on.  Most should boot normally.  But, if some do not, just trying using an alternate one in the lab.  We'll be back in the Monday afterwards and can check on any systems that didn't boot normally.  (And don't forget, as mentioned above our compute servers -- gradx, gradz, ugradx, ugradz -- will continue to be remotely available, even if the lab systems are not.)
 
 
* The printers in MH 122 and MH G61 will remain online, but, please pick up your printouts outside of the contest hours.

CS IT STAFF AVAILABILITY

  • The CS IT Support staff is back in Malone Hall. Our group is working a hybrid schedule with some of us working remotely on certain days, while others of our team are on campus.
  • We continue being available M-F, 8:30 to 5pm, but there may be certain times we might be online only.
  • Therefore, please remember to email support@cs.jhu.edu for assistance.
  • Also, please have Zoom available on your device(s), so that we can arrange to contact you using that method, as an alternative to in-person communication.
  • For the time being, Steve DeBlasio, our accounts liaison, is providing a virtual version of his daily office hours for accounts, etc. Email support@cs.jhu.edu for details.

PLANNED CS IT SERVICE OUTAGES

OUTAGE: CS Linux Lab Systems Downtime/Upgrade Schedule

WHEN: Monday, August 19 through Friday, August 23

WHAT: Subsets of the CS Linux clients will be down for upgrades over the course of the week.

DETAILS: In prepping for the new semester, we will be upgrading the CS Dept's Linux clients (our lab systems and others that are remotely-accessible-only) from Fedora 38 to Fedora 40. This will require having the clients offline during the upgrades. We'll do this in stages, so there will always be some clients available at all times.

The upgrade schedule for these systems will be as follows:

  • On Monday, August 19, ugrad1 through ugrad12 (in MH 122) will be upgraded.
  • On Tuesday, August 20, ugrad13 through ugrad24 and masters1 through masters16 (in MH G61) will be upgraded.
  • On Wednesday, August 21, ugradz and gradz (remotely-accessible only) will be upgraded.
  • On Thursday, August 22, ugradx and gradx (remotely-accessible only) will be upgraded.
  • On Friday. August 23, any systems that had to be skipped during the previous days will be upgraded. Our Notices page will have information about any such systems.
