  5. Pico: reboot required on...

Dear Users,
the GSS filesystem (/gss/gss_work, which hosts the DRES areas and is connected to the TAPE service) is at the moment not available on the first login node of Pico (node001). A reboot of the node is required to mount the filesystem, and the operation is scheduled for tomorrow, February 16th, in the early morning.
All active sessions (and connections) on that front-end  will be killed at the reboot, and the modifications to files found open at the start of the operation will be lost; hence, we invite you to save your files before the start of the operation, which will be announced by a message broadcast on the active shells of the node.
The second login node (node013) will keep working at its full functionality.
Best regards
