A Lot of Clusters are Non-functional

Hi Chenghui,


Let me clarify my previous post. The number of machines were zombified by
users, not by me or some other supernatural power. I know better than to
change any configuration a few days before the major conference.

As you might know, the cluster is a shared resource. I have zero control
over the behaviour of such a large, diverse group. I can  advise,
recommend, or educate about the topics I know something about. I don't
debug other people's code. I don't have any magic powers.
