These systems are core components of the GWDG mass storage infrastructure on which almost all applications and services depend directly or indirectly. The upgrade aims to improve operational stability, enable new functions and ensure the future supportability of the systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The upgrades will be carried out online without interruption of the storage services provided by means of several failovers between the redundant functional units of the systems. They will be mostly transparent for clients. Increased latencies may occur for a short time when accessing the mass storage. For the users no impairments are to be expected, provided that no unexpected problems occur.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Message-Id: 202108030800 Time: 12.08.2021, 17:00 &#8211; 21:00 Affected: GWDG ESX environment, group drives of the university, student home directories, file areas of the university administration, file areas and parts of the ESX environment of the Max Planck Society Administrative Headquarters, various other services Impact: None On Thursday, 12.08.2021, a firmware upgrade will be carried out &#8230; <a title=\"Maintenance: Firmware upgrade central NetApp mass storage systems in the maintenance window on 12.08.2021 from 17:00\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/info.gwdg.de\/news\/maintenance-firmware-upgrade-central-netapp-mass-storage-systems-in-the-maintenance-window-on-12-08-2021-from-1700\/\" aria-label=\"Mehr Informationen \u00fcber Maintenance: Firmware upgrade central NetApp mass storage systems in the maintenance window on 12.08.2021 from 17:00\">Weiterlesen<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":59,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[44,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18880","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-fileservice","category-operating-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/info.gwdg.de\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18880","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/info.gwdg.de\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/info.gwdg.de\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/info.gwdg.de\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/59"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/info.gwdg.de\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18880"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/info.gwdg.de\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18880\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18884,"href":"https:\/\/info.gwdg.de\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18880\/revisions\/18884"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/info.gwdg.de\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18880"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/info.gwdg.de\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18880"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/info.gwdg.de\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
