Due to installation of the new EURO_IT4I supercomputer, the **Anselm supercomputer was withdrawn from service on 25.1.2021**. Job scheduling on **Salomon supercomputer will be disabled from 1.4.2021** onwards. The Barbora and DGX-2 supercomputers continue regular operation.
After nearly 7 years of service in the case of the Anselm supercomputer and 5 years of service in the case of the Salomon supercomputer, it is time for withdrawal from service.
