Scheduled Maintenance on 2012-09-04
Next Tuesday we will go into Scheduled Downtime.
It will last from 9:00 to 18:00, but we will return to operation as soon as we finish.
As usual, CMS and Atlas queues will be closed 24 hours before the maintenance,
and LHCb queue will close 48 hours before the maintenance.
Summary of interventions
We will perform the following operations on the cluster:

- Affected nodes: wn[01-43]
- Notes:
Enable GridFTP doors on IBM IO nodes
- Description: Thors need to be shut down, so therefore we need to enable the gridftp doors in the IBM nodes.
- Affected nodes: se[01-08]
