MARCONI: filesystem unavailable and $CINECA_SCRATCH cleaning emergency

Dear Users,

MARCONI is currently unavailable because of a filesystem issue. This is due to a known bug that arises when the disk space occupancy of a certain area reaches a limit.

In this case, $CINECA_SCRATCH is currently at 90% occupancy and this is causing the malfuncion. As an emergency procedure, we are going to clean some space by modifying the cleaning procedure, making it effective for files older than 30 days instead of the current value of 50.
We apologize for the inconvenience, in normal condition such a change would be communicated with the proper advance, but we are hastening it because of the emergency.

Regards,
HPC User Support - CINECA
