ECMWF will be updating the GPU nodes in the European Weather Cloud (CCI1) on Tuesday 14 May 2024 10:00 UTC. This will make possible to support newer CUDA versions for AI/ML workloads.
During the session, all GPU instances will be rebooted. We have notified people owning GPU instances by e-mail.
Once the session is over, any affected instances will be back online.
However, this is a good opportunity to review your usage. GPUs are a limited resource, so if you no longer make use of those GPU instances, we would kindly ask you to delete them. That will free those GPU resources for other users in the cloud.
As always, if you have any concerns or doubts, please do get in touch with us through the European Weather Cloud Support Portal.
We apologise for the disruption this may cause and thank you for your understanding.
