Continued severe problems with pfs (2019-06-25)

The pfs (parallel file system) is still experiencing severe problems. The bug fix we implemented seemed to stabilize it for about a week, but now pfs is again down.

Both Kebnekaise and Abisko are affected, including access to the PFS filesystem from the login nodes. We recommend that you try to avoid using the PFS filesystem, since it either takes very long to access or it cannot be accessed at all.

We are currently working intensively to solve the problems. At the moment we have no ETA when the problems will be resolved.

Note: The batch queues for Kebnekaise and Abisko are stopped until further notice.

This news will be updated as soon as we have any updated information about the problems.
