    Our Holyoke data center, MGHPCC, will be doing power work on Row 8A. This work, which is being completed over the course of 2 weeks, will bring online another power feed which will increase power capacity.

    In order to do this work, it will require us to idle half the nodes in 8a for the duration of the week. This means all partitions in this row will be at half capacity. Existing jobs should drain naturally and no job should need to be canceled.

    The impacted partitions are:
