Dear Franklin users,

This is a reminder that Franklin will be under scheduled maintenance 
tomorrow from 7am-11am PDT followed by scheduled benchmarking from 
11am-3pm PDT.  During scheduled benchmarking testing,  user logins are 
allowed, so you could do normal editing, compilation, and batch job 
submission. Production batch queues will be enabled after the 
benchmarking test (maybe available earlier than 3pm).

Batch queues have started draining 24 hours before the maintenance.  
Batch jobs waiting in the queue that requests more than 18:30 hours 
(time available from now to 7am tomorrow) will not start until after the 
maintenance.  Shorter jobs may get good backfill opportunities. It is 
always a good idea to request job wall clock time as accurate as 
possible in order to get better throughput for your own jobs and for the 
entire system.

Best Regards,

Helen He
