Rocky Linux 9 introduces new versions of various system tools and libraries. Some codes compiled earlier under CentOS 7 might not be working under Rocky Linux 9 anymore. Thus, legacy versions of environment modules offered under CentOS 7 were not transferred to the new OS environment or have been replaced by more recent versions.

phase, a major fraction of nodes will be switched to Rocky Linux 9 to allow for general job production under the new OS. In the last step, the few nodes still under CentOS 7 will be converted to Rocky Linux 9, too.
During the migration phase the use of Rocky Linux 9 "clx" compute nodes will be free of charge. The migration is expected to be complete by the end of July.
