WHAT’S HAPPENING?

APC will be adding additional racks to the existing Server room containment system (CCB247).  

Affected servers:

Skynet Cluster

WHEN IS IT HAPPENING?

July 6th - 9th. The current estimate is Wednesday (7/7) afternoon but could be delayed until Thursday (7/8).

WHY IS IT HAPPENING?

TSO is expanding the Server Room containment aisle.

WHO IS AFFECTED?

In order to connect the power poles in the new racks, APC is required to power off each of the 266kW Power Distribution Units (PDUs) one at a time. The servers and network switches are powered redundantly so no user impact is expected.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO DO?

No user actions needed.

WHO SHOULD YOU CONTACT FOR QUESTIONS?

Feel free to contact the TSO Help Desk (helpdesk@cc.gatech.edu).
