The Massachusetts Green High Performance Computing Center (MGHPCC) will be conducting its annual shutdown for maintenance work, beginning on Monday, June 5, 2023. Northeastern’s Discovery cluster is physically located at MGHPCC and is included in this shutdown, along with the high performance cluster systems of Harvard, Boston University, MIT, and the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. Discovery will be powered down starting at 3 a.m. ET on Monday, June 5.
All systems will be affected by the shutdown, including all compute nodes, storage (including research and archive storage), and the Open OnDemand web portal. Please be aware that any running jobs will be terminated on June 5 as the system is powered down.
We are currently anticipating that the Discovery cluster will be powered back on by 5 p.m. ET on Thursday, June 8, given that all work is completed in a timely manner.
