<p>Dear Users,</p>
<p>an upgrade of the NVIDIA drivers on the login nodes and a modification of their X server configuration have been scheduled for next Monday, October 12th, at 10 am. The operation will require:</p>
<p>- the stop of RCM and EnginFrame services (at 10 pm of Oct 11)</p>
<p>- the stop of the archive queue (at 6 am of Oct 12)</p>
<p>- the reboot of the login nodes, front-ends included (shortly after 10 am of Oct 12). All active sessions (and connections) on the front-ends will be killed at the reboot, and the modifications to files found open at the start of the operation will be lost; hence, we invite you to save your files before the start of the operation (10 am).</p>
<p>The operations are expected to be complete, and all the visualization services back to production, at 11 am of Oct 12.</p>
<p>Best regards</p>
<p>HPC User Support @ CINECA</p>
