2026, May - Upgrade to Rocky 10 (Poweruser testing phase)</description><generator>Hugo</generator><language>de-de</language><atom:link href="https://docs.hpc.gwdg.de/support/recent_upcoming_changes/index.xml" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><item><title>2026, May - Upgrade to Rocky 10 (Poweruser testing phase)</title><link>https://docs.hpc.gwdg.de/support/recent_upcoming_changes/rocky10/index.html</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://docs.hpc.gwdg.de/support/recent_upcoming_changes/rocky10/index.html</guid><description>Our upcoming hardware generation (planned to go online around the end of summer 2026) will run Rocky 10. When it is ready for production (or close to it), the rest of the HPC compute and login nodes will also be upgraded to Rocky 10.
This means we will be upgrading from Rocky 8 straight to Rocky 10, skipping Rocky 9, to reduce the number of changes everyone has to handle. We encourage all users to test their workloads to ensure a smooth transition to Rocky 10 and to benefit from the new hardware generation as soon as it is put into operation. In addition, we are grateful to receive feedback - both success stories and any obstacles encountered - via the ticket system (please include “Rocky 10” in the subject of your ticket).</description></item></channel></rss>
