Rocket HPC service due to be LIVE on 31st October

The Rocket HPC pilot phase is due to end on 31st October and the service will then be considered LIVE. This has been a team effort and we are more than grateful to all the NUIT staff, pilot users and other people who have helped us get to this point.

For projects that have not yet registered to use Rocket or that are waiting for their registration to be completed, there will be no change: we are completing registrations when we can and most delays are related to software requests. Please bear with us, we know you are waiting.

For projects that have already been added to Rocket, the move to a live service means:

– project PIs will be able to add more members to their group and instructions will be available on http://www.ncl.ac.uk/itservice/research/hpc. Please do not try this just yet – it may not work well.

– the service will no longer be subject to interruptions at short notice.

– queries and requests will be handled as service desk tickets.

As always, most information about Rocket is on the web pages at http://www.ncl.ac.uk/itservice/research/hpc. Please get in touch if you have any another queries.
