Solved: SciLifeLabs internal storage solution Storage 3
Ongoing operational disruption on SciLifeLab's internal storage solution Storage 3.
System/Service: The in-house storage, Storage3 at SciLifeLab. (Net App)
Interruption: In recent days, performance issues have been observed in SciLifeLab's storage system, affecting several research groups. It is not entirely clear what has caused the issues. There appear to be multiple contributing factors — but one likely major factor could be that the data migration from the old data hall at SciLifeLab (alfa6) to the new data hall at Albanova has triggered side effects.
This is further amplified by the fact that SciLifeLab is a data-intensive environment, where storage demand has increased significantly in recent times.
Status: Solved
Who is affected: Everyone who uses and mounts the in-house storage (Instruments, servers and client computers).
How the interruption affects you: Data integrity is secure, and nothing should be lost in any way. The problem is expressed in very low read speeds for the data that is currently stored.
