rdp.mcs.anl.gov downtime on 9/11/2015

March 29, 2022 by Stacey, Craig

Those of you who use rdp.mcs.anl.gov (Remote Desktop server for Windows) may have noticed the disk is quite full. I need to migrate users to a new partition to free up space. This, however, requires the machine be offline during the migration. At the moment, the plan is to take the machine offline tomorrow at noon. I’m estimating a three hour outage, though it may be less than that. At any point I’ll post an announcement at the start and end of work on the blog and twitter feed linked below.
Thanks, and sorry for any inconvenience this causes. I’d like to do this on a weekend, but schedules don’t align to have it happen this coming weekend and I don’t want it to wait another week as the disk is quite full.
