<p class="MsoNormal">We are pleased to inform you that over the next few weeks, we will be upgrading the Unity cluster from Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) version 8.9 to 8.10. This upgrade will be conducted as a rolling update, ensuring that there will be
no downtime. Updates will be applied as nodes become available, allowing us to maintain continuous productivity without a full-day shutdown.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The upgrade process will begin today and, depending on the workload, is expected to be completed before the start of the semester. Additionally, for groups utilizing GPUs, we will also update the systems to the latest NVIDIA driver.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this period. Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.<o:p></o:p></p>
