-{{Note
-| text = Begin Production October 1st
-Due to the outdated software version on the Laki cluster,
-and the upcoming installation of the new cluster named Vulcan,
-we would like to inform you how we plan to migrate the
-production from the old Cluster to Vulcan:
-* All active projects on Laki will automatically get access to Vulcan.
-* Login to Vulcan will be possible starting from October 1st  2018
-* The Lustre workspace filesystem and the users Home filesystems will be identical on both clusters (Laki and Vulcan).
-* Compute nodes will be moved from Laki to Vulcan. The following time schedule is planned:
-** 10/01-17: start moving special node types (graphics nodes, large memory nodes, ...)
-** 10/08 :start moving SandyBridge nodes to Vulcan
-** 10/10: start moving Haswell (hsw128gb10c) nodes to Vulcan
-** 10/15: start moving Haswell (hsw128gb12c) nodes to Vulcan
-* Final shutdown of Laki (all queued jobs on Laki will be deleted): October 31st
-* The operating system on Vulcan will be based on CentOS 7.
-* The batch system will be PBSPro
-* accounting of the cluster nodes will be changed from core hours (Laki) to node hours (Vulcan).
