Dear MedBioNode users,
I’ve just received the information from IT department, that cooling system in the server rooms are not operational and to protect the MedBioNode cluster equipment we need to shut it down. These are very unfortunate, as well as unforeseeable circumstances that require immediate action.
############# Therefore MedBioNode cluster will be shut down in the next minutes!!!!!!!!!!!! #################
Thanks for your understanding!!!!!

Dear researchers,
If you want to get an overview of your 10X data before moving on to deeper bioinformatics research, please register for a free hands-on training at https://shorturl.at/5TbCL . You will learn the fundamentals of using Loupe Browser and Xenium Explorer to analyze 10x Genomics data without having to learn any coding languages.
REGISTRATION & Program: https://shorturl.at/5TbCL
Date: Tuesday, May 28, 2024
Time: 9:00h - 11:30h Loupe Browser Session
13:00h - 14:30h Xenium Explorer Session
Venue: Seminar Room EG-086, ZMF ground floor, Stiftingtalstraße 24, 8036 Graz
Bring your own laptop and learn how to do some basic analysis using Loupe Browser!
Have a nice weekend,

Herewith I'd like to share important information with you. IT department was working on some slurm jobs issue and discovered that one needs to be aware of how java is handling "tmp" folder.
Java is only honoring the $TMP environment variable on windows. On Linux Java is using a hardcoded "/tmp" when creating temporary file objects.
It seems that the workaround for this is to set the java.io.tmp property of the JVM to the content of $TEMPDIR environment variable at startup like this:
java -Djava.io.tmpdir="$TEMPDIR" ...
For further information see this stackoverflow thread:

Thanks for your attention

Dear MedBioNode users,
I’ve rebooted the login node and used this opportunity to also upgrade rstudio server to the latest version.

Dear MedBioNode users,
login node sx036 lost connection to the mount point "/home/cluster" and therefore needs to be restarted. We plan to make the restart over the weekend, so please take this in consideration and expect short downtime. The reboot will also affect all RStudio Server users, since it is running on this machine. Running SLURM jobs will not be affected.
Thanks for the understanding.
Regards,
Slave

Dear MedBioNode user,
it is planned in the next time to expand our HPC infrastructure and therewith to provide more CPU and GPU performance for jobs execution. To proper plan cluster growth it is very critical to evaluate your needs, as well as expected amount of future CPU based or GPU based data analysis tasks.
Therefore provide us information about bottlenecks that you currently experience in using MedBioNode. Also it will be very helpful if you can already estimate calculation capacity separately CPU or GPU for your data analysis for this year. If you have some questions, or you're uncertain how to provide this information contact me to assist you.
Thanks very much in advance for your cooperation.
Best regards,
Slave

Please refer to the information about the lecture that is attached to this email.
We would be grateful if you could also let your colleagues know about this information.
* DATE/ TIME: Feb 5th 2024, 9:00 - 10:00
* LOCATION: Aula, MedUni Graz
* keynote lecture: Dr. Jernej Zupanc "Effective Use of COLOR in Your Science Visualization - a Crash Course"
We are looking forward to seeing you on Feb 5th!
