Maintenance downtimes

Regular interventions are necessary, for example, to allow software or microcode updates on our infrastructure’s systems. Each intervention can be complex and lead to temporary service unavailability.

These downtimes do not generally concern all of our services, which is why we communicate, ten days before, the detailed list of the affected services as well as the provisional schedule. These communications allow CC-IN2P3 users to plan their work accordingly, thus the impact of the maintenance shutdowns can be minimized.

The dates of the last and the next scheduled maintainance are available on the User Portal. In addition, the following links lead to the list of scheduled maintenance shutdowns for the next 12 months:

This schedule is not exhaustive and may change, other downtime may take place following unforeseen events, operational or IT security constraints whose deadlines are incompatible with the date of the nearest scheduled maintenance shutdown.
