spring is coming

Trip to the campus in Wedding. It is quite amazing that some modern systems still use a serial connection for prodding. I guess it is well tried and tested. In the afternoon we met fellow HPC admins from the other Berlin universities. It was really nice to meet other people. We pretty much all have similar problems which mostly boils down to what to do with petabytes of storage on systems that are no longer supported. We went out for excellent Chinese dinner.
