Reported Outages

KVM@TACC was unavailable starting in the evening of April 21, 2022. It has been resolved.

Update: This has been resolved as of 11:42 AM, and the site is back up. Running nodes should not have been affected, aside from the temporary loss of network connectivity.

CHI@UC is currently down due to a failure of the controller node's load-balancer. We will update here with more information.

Update: Connectivity has been restored. Root cause was a software bug preventing the creation of a PVST instance on the switch, due to a large number of configured vlans. Using a single instance for all VLANs restored functionality.

The 1g switch serving out-of-band access for nodes in rack BG-41 has encountered a (so far) unrecoverable software error, preventing traffic to the out of band interface on nodes P3-CPU-020 to P3-CPU-038.

Update 11:16 CST: This should now be resolved. A forwarding loop in the underlying network topology caused some ports to become shut down. Instance provisioning and floating IPs should now be working again. Please reach out if you're still seeing issues on the UC site.

We're currently observing networking issues at UC. New instances are failing to provision, and existing ones are unreachable. We're still investigating the root cause, but will update here when resolved. Other sites are unaffected.

Update: The work completed at 12:00 PM (CST).

Network maintenance will be carried out at the TACC site between 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM (CST) on Sunday, March 6th. Access to all systems hostetd at TACC will be unavailable during this time, includeing CHI@TACC, KVM@TACC, CHI@Edge, and the Chameleon Portal. Instances will continue to run, but users will have no access to TACC services and systems until the upgrade is complete.

Please submit any questions you may have via the Chameleon Helpdesk: https://chameleoncloud.org/user/help/

This outage has been resolved, and CHI@NU is fully operational.

The CHI@NU site is currently inaccessible due to unexpected issues during a service upgrade. Any running nodes should be unaffected, but are currently inaccessible, along with the Horizon WebUI and API. Other sites are unaffected.

If this outage interrupts your work, feel free to use resources at another site, and please let us know via the helpdesk if you have a use-case that requires the CHI@NU site.
