Dear CINECA Users,

we inform you that starting from the 27th of May the
filesystems $CINECA_HOME and $CINECA_DATA will be
NO MORE available on the compute nodes of SP5.
They will REMAIN available on the login and archive nodes.
Therefore it will NOT be possible to access these
filesystems from your Jobs script anymore and,
as for BCX, all the I/O activities of a Job
should be directed to the $CINECA_SCRATCH filesystem.

This change will uniform SP5 to the new filesystem
layout inplemented in the HPC systems at CINECA,
where olny parallel filesystes are visible from
all nodes, to reduce I/O instabilities and bottlenecks.


Carlo Cavazzoni,
