Maintenance Schedule

Maintenance Schedule

Overview

To ensure the ASU Research Computing systems are safe and current, maintenance outages will be scheduled and carried out quarterly on the supercomputers and related infrastructure to maintain stability and improve performance and security. Jobs will not be allowed to run on the supercomputers during the maintenance period. The length and timing of these maintenance windows were carefully planned to minimize the impact of the University's ongoing research commitments. Estimated maintenance dates are subject to change. Communication will be sent out via email before maintenance.
