Upcoming gratia outage

Gratia will undergo emergency maintenance this afternoon to address disk space issues. Exact timing of the outage is unknown but is being determined at this time.

Unstable and/or unavailable behavior should be expected but no loss of data is anticipated. Some GOC services (GratiaWeb and display.opensciencegrid.org, for example) will also be affected.

The OSG Operations apologizes for any inconvenience you may encounter.
