The very fat node (s229) in Snowy is unavailable closed

The very fat (4TB) node s229 in Snowy has unfortunately broken. Hardware issues prevents it from booting. The -C veryfat feature in Slurm is thus no longer working. To our knowledge few users need more than 1 TB of memory, thus most users should not notice s229 missing from the scheduler. However if you are one of the users who need > 1TB of memory please contact the support at support@uppmax.uu.se and we will try to find a solution for you.

s229 is now back in production. Thank you to http://www.update.uu.se/ for providing us with a spare part.
