from Tuesday, June 9, 2026 9:00 am till Tuesday, June 16, 2026 4:00 pm

On June 9th at 9:00 AM, the DNS entry and the primary NFS server for the Ceph-based NFS service will be switched from the IP address 141.76.38.238 to 172.26.70.99. The old IP address will remain active for a transitional period of one week and will then be deactivated. To ensure that your NFS connections continue to function smoothly, please follow these steps:

  • Ensure that your systems access the NFS server via the DNS name and not directly via the IP address. The DNS name will remain unchanged, so no adjustments are necessary if you are using the DNS name.
  • If you have manually entered the old IP address in configuration files (e.g., firewalls), please replace it with the DNS name of the server or the new IP address.
  • You should re-run the NFS mount once during the transition week
