To all taki users,

The taki downtime scheduled for today from 0800-1700 has completed a little behind schedule. We have updated the workload manager, SLURM, from major version 19 to major version 20. In the near future, we will be scheduling additional downtimes to iteratively upgrade through major version 23.

We have run some small jobs to confirm normal operating conditions, but will otherwise rely on user reports of unforeseen issues potentially related to these upgrades. Therefore, please let us know if you notice any issues or if you have any questions/concerns by submitting a descriptive help request form found at the following link.
