Level:	high

On 2025-01-01, a problem with the Lustre file system appeared. The distributed lock manager puts a very high load on some Lustre servers, resulting in frequent timeouts. Users will experience this as slow or impossible access to $VSC_SCRATCH and staging directories. Since the cause of the problem has not yet been identified, a reliable time to solution cannot be provided at the moment. Workloads that do not make use of the Lustre file system should not be affected.

update - 07-01-2025 The reservation is released, all jobs will be starting.
update - 05-01-2025 The load on the Lustre file system has stabilized and performance seems to be back to normal. As a precautionary measure, a reservation has been placed on all nodes starting on 2025-01-09 09:00, wich will accommodate further investigation if required. Jobs that cannot complete before the start of the reservation, will remain in the queue.
