The entire NEMO cluster is shut down. No calculations are possible during maintenance, so submit all jobs in good time. Please note that only jobs whose walltime fits into the time window until maintenance can be started. Jobs that cannot start will only be processed afterwards. However, in the event of problems, the queue may have to be emptied. During maintenance, the operating system of the cluster is updated.

MathWorks Products: No General License Available on NEMO2

The statewide academic license agreement for MathWorks products at Baden-Württemberg universities expires on March 31, 2026. There will be no general MathWorks license available on NEMO2 specifically. Universities and other clusters may handle this differently. Please consider using open-source alternatives or contact us if you hold your own license.

SSH Configuration Issue Fixed: Local Authorized Keys No Longer Working

An SSH configuration issue on the login nodes has been fixed. SSH keys stored in local authorized_keys files are no longer accepted. This behavior was never intended - please use SSH keys configured in login.bwidm.de instead.
