Not able to reboot or reload a certain node

[Peter Yao]

Hi,

I am having trouble either rebooting or reloading or power cycling the deep_fifo node. I waited for about an hour, and the status is still "changing". I am wondering if there is anything that went wrong, and whether I need to instatiate a new experiment instead. 

Many thanks in advance!

Hi. Looks like your experiment expired. But pc522 appears to have
problems, I taken it out of service until we have time to diagnose
it. Thanks for letting us know.

Dear Leigh, 

Thanks for replying!
I think the experiment expires at Jan. 12, according to the portal. Is it expired already?

Best, 
Peter

Hi. Since you did not provide a link to your experiment, I just
looked at pc522, and it was in hwdown, so I assumed your experiment
had terminated.

Sounds like everything is good now?

Sorry for not providing the link earlier.

the troubled node: pc524, still can neither reboot or reload. The status is still in "changing"

Thanks,

Ah, pre-coffee my eyes were still blurry. :-)
I will peek at pc524, but odds are that these old nodes (circa 2009)
are slowly dying off.

Stay tuned …

pc524 should be up now. I had accidentally killed the DHCP server and thus
it did not boot correctly. The node seems kinda slow though, I suspect there
might be a disk issue. Keep an eye on it.
