MONITORING

PACE and the CEDAR vendor have identified and begun implementing measures to create additional capacity on CEDAR. More capacity is expected to become available Sunday evening as automated cleanup processes continue to run. We have verified that storage space is beginning to be reclaimed and will continue to closely monitor capacity utilization and system performance as these cleanup activities progress. At this time, these actions are expected to reduce pressure on the system and improve performance for affected users. As a precaution, users should continue to avoid creating, modifying, or transferring large amounts of data unless necessary. Read-only operations remain safe to perform. Additional updates will be provided as more information becomes available

MONITORING

We are closely monitoring storage capacity for the CEDAR service, which is approaching its available limits. A capacity expansion is planned for mid-October, but usage is expected to continue increasing before that work is completed. At this time, a small number of users have reported delays when accessing or updating data. Based on current performance trends, additional users may begin to experience similar issues. OIT is working with the vendor to identify options for recovering capacity and reducing the risk of service degradation. We are also requesting that users avoid creating, modifying, or transferring large amounts of data unless necessary to help preserve service stability. Users should not delete data at this time. Impact: Users may experience slower-than-normal performance when accessing, updating, or storing data in CEDAR."

MONITORING

Dear CEDAR users, The CEDAR storage system is approaching capacity. The addition of 2.4 PB of new storage is expected by mid-October. When possible, please temporarily stop writing and modifying data to CEDAR while mitigations are implemented. Users should not delete data – pausing writing and modifying data while work is carried out with the vendor is sufficient. Read-only operations are safe to continue. Thank you for helping us keep CEDAR’s performance optimal. Please contact us at pace-support@oit.gatech.edu with questions. We will follow up with additional details on CEDAR’s expansion once they are available. Thank you, The PACE Team

Description

Microsoft is retiring the 'memberOf' dynamic membership rule operator on November 3, 2026. A number of GT departments rely on this functionality to dynamically populate Microsoft 365 Groups and Microsoft Teams. The OIT Business Solutions team will be implementing new automation to replace this functionality during this maintenance window. No action is needed by customers, but impacted customers' CSRs/IT staff have been notified of this change (CHG0037944).
