    SchedMD has issued a patch for a critical security vulnerability. It is imperative that we apply this patch ASAP. This will require a pause of the cluster for roughly 30-60 minutes at around 11am, after which jobs and the scheduler will continue normal operation.

    A side effect of this is that we will move up to version 23.02.7 with the patch which will fix the IntelMPI and PMI2 issues some users have experienced.

    Thanks for your understanding and patience.
