If you have an existing project and wish to migrate your instance(s) to the new hardware, you have two options:

  1. Follow the migration instructions, any time from when the new hardware is available until the deadline for instance migrations.
  2. If you would like assistance with migration, you can sign up for one of our migration sprints during which our staff will help you.

All of the old equipment will be decommissioned, so if you do not wish to migrate you will need to move your data to other storage by the cut off date as shown below.

Information Sessions

Pawsey staff will be running online information sessions to provide you with general information about the new system. They will be able to answer your questions about the application process, migrating your instances across to the new system, or getting started. See the Dates table below for the details and the link to access the sessions.

Migration Sprints

Pawsey staff are running migration sprints to assist users with getting the instances running on the new hardware. These sessions will centre on the migration instructions. To receive support in migration, sign up for one of the sprints so that we can assist you. To sign up, click on the sign up link.
