The bwUniCluster system will be unavailable between October 17, 2016 and October 21, 2016 for scheduled maintenance.

We strongly recommend to recompile all your binaries after the maintenance due to operational system as well as software and libraries upgrade.

The batch system queues will be closed starting a couple of days before the maintenance window and will then be cleared. Data on the parallel file systems will remain intact.
