We have upgraded MATLAB to the latest version, 2017a.  The new version is now available on HPC and Spear.

As part of the maintenance upgrade, we have upgraded many software packages on the HPC to newer versions.  Here is the complete list.

On our Spear systems, we are replacing NoMachine with a new utility: XPRA.

This May, we will conduct software maintenance on our HPC and Spear clusters.  We will also perform brief maintenance on our Lustre export nodes.  This maintenance will allow us to upgrade all of the software on our clusters to newer versions, and more.

We've released a new tool on the HPC login nodes to make it easy to see information about your account and which partitions/nodes you have access to.

All 76 nodes that were damaged during Hurricane Hermine last September have been replaced.  New nodes, purchased by Lenovo, are online and processing jobs.

The Research Computing Center will be closed from Dec 23 through Jan 2 for FSU Winter Break.  Systems will remain online and available during this period.

As the RCC grows, it is important for us to provide higher level of reliabilty to our research partners.  To this end, we are consolidating all RCC equipment to the Northwest Regional Datacenter (NWRDC).  RCC staff will remain in Dirac Science Library.

We have a new member on our team.  Brian Gentry has been hired as RCC's newest systems administrator.

As of October 1, the RCC has almost fully recovered from the Datacenter damage inflicted by Hurricane Hermine.  The one remaining major item is the replacement of the 2015 HPC compute nodes.
