  • Reminder: Upcoming Shaheen Maintenance and System Upgrade (Oct 13)

Dear Shaheen Users,

This is a reminder regarding the upcoming scheduled maintenance for the Shaheen system.

Shaheen will be unavailable for running jobs from 13th to 17th October (Sunday - Thursday). 

Please note that we have also extended the "at-risk period" to include the weekend of 18th to 21st October (Friday - Monday) to accommodate additional regression testing by the KSL team.

Access to the login nodes will not be affected during this time. However, compute nodes will not be available for running jobs.

This extended maintenance is part of a major system upgrade that includes updates to the programming environment, workload scheduler, firmware, and the management subsystem.

Please reach out to us at help@hpc.kaust.edu.sa if you have any questions or concerns.
