Service has been restored to campus phone lines at UC Berkeley, after an eight-hour outage on Sunday.
Calls handled by the PBX system were not working properly from about 10 a.m. to about 6 p.m. IST technicians worked with AT&T to resolve the issue.
During the outage, people were reminded to that In emergencies, they should use cell phones to call 911. AnyIST.one who experiences further problems with their campus landline should call IST.

A new pool of compute nodes is now accessible to users of Savio, the campus’s high-performance computing cluster. The Savio 2 BigMem pool currently offers four nodes with twice the memory of the nodes in the standard Savio 2 pool (128 GB versus 64 GB).
You are invited to join the upcoming UC IT Town Hall either via webstream or in person.
Date: September 9, 2016
Time: 10:00 – 11:00 a.m.

Analytics Environments on Demand, or AEoD, is an emerging service that provides remotely-accessed, domain specific, scalable computational environments to UC Berkeley researchers.
The next issue of the “CSS Update,” our communication effort to keep you, our campus partners, informed is now available.
Our goal is that this update provides you the information you need to provide timely feedback and prepare for changes. For more in-depth information, please continue to turn to your CSS Service Director and the supplemental information that is linked to within the document.

Beginning in July 2016, the Google Authenticator application has become the newly-supported tool used for generating one-time passwords (OTPs) by users of Savio and other high-performance computing (HPC) clusters managed by Berkeley Research Computing
Beginning with the fall 2016 semester, courses utilizing ETS’s Course Capture service to record and publish their classes will benefit from an enhanced security feature which will limit content access to users with a CalNet identity. Thanks to the extension of our Berkeley domain identities (CalNet login) to the YouTube interface, we can now limit access to course videos to those users logged in with their Berkeley ID. These security enhancements are being added to help address privacy and security requests across the campus community.

“Well, I’m not safe near real chemicals,” says UC Berkeley Professor Eric Neuscamman, a theoretical chemist working to develop increasingly accurate and computationally cost-effective methods of modeling electron behavior in molecules. To inform chemists’ experimentation, theoretical chemists use supercomputers to solve complex mathematical equations, including theSchrödinger equation, that yield predictive models of what molecules will do in chemical reactions.
