Scheduled maintenance affecting Polytope service on LUMI, MN5 & LEONARDO data bridges

On 20 August 2026, from 12:00 to 13:00 CEST, scheduled maintenance will temporarily interrupt the Polytope service on the LUMI, MN5 and LEONARDO data bridges.

Please be advised that there will be a scheduled system session affecting the LUMI, MN5 & LEONARDO Polytope service on:

  • Date: Thursday 20 August 2026
  • Time: 12:00 – 13:00 CEST (1 hour)

 

Impact

  • Polytope will not be able to serve data from the data bridges during this time.
  • Archiving to the data bridges from the LUMI, MN5 & LEONARDO HPCs will be temporarily unavailable.

 

Reason for Maintenance

This maintenance session is required to update the FDB data bridge virtual machines to the latest kernel and address identified security vulnerabilities. The work will require the virtual machines to be rebooted and the FDB to be restarted.
