Dear Users,</p>
<p>This is to inform you that the next accelerated partition of Marconi<br />
*(Marconi100)* will be installed soon and this imply that both Marconi-KNL<br />
and DAVIDE clusters must close their production phase.</p>
<p>To this end, *Maroni-KNL and DAVIDE will be stopped and shut down on January<br />
15th 2020*. </p>
<p>Marconi100 hardware installation will start soon after and is expected to be<br />
completed at the end of February 2020. After that date, benchmarks and<br />
acceptance tests will be perfomend, followed by final configuration for<br />
production.</p>
<p>*We plan to start Marconi100 pre-production phase around March 15th, and to<br />
open it in full production around end of March.*</p>
<p>Best Regards,</p>
<p>HPC Support @ CINECA</p>
