Most HPC resources including Lawrencium LR3 and other compute clusters in the Bldg 50B-1275 datacenter will be unavailable during the May 18 weekend due to facilities work to repair a leak in the cooling systems. Job scheduler reservations and reduced access to cluster resources will be put in place from Friday, May 17th 5:00 pm to Monday May 20th Noon; however, we have made accommodations to continue to run jobs for users with critical deadlines. Systems that are still available during this weekend include Lawrencium LR2, JCAP, Riemann, Vulcan, Catamount, and Voltaire. Please email [email protected] if you have any questions or concerns.
Google has announced a unified storage plan in which storage is allocated in one bundle to their Google Gmail, Drive and Google+ services. We expect to see this roll out to Enterprise customers after May 21.

"As a result of today’s storage change, Gmail inboxes for Google Apps customers are no longer limited to 25 GB - any additional storage you purchase can be shared and used by Gmail. Or alternatively, if you’re only using a few gigabytes of email storage, but have a lot of large documents and files stored in Google Drive, you can now use your storage primarily for Drive."
This means everyone at the lab will have 30GB to use however they wish. Those of you who are close to the current maximum of 25GB in Gmail will now have some additional space (assuming you do not use it in Drive).
We have around 100 customers at the lab who will benefit from this from a GMail perspective. Many more will benefit from having more Drive Space (many Gmail users are never close to 25GB). In addition, additional storage can be purchased which effectively eliminates any need to periodically delete messages when the max limit has been reached.
