Dear Auckland GPU users,

We have detected an issue on our GPU hypervisors that might unintentionally remove the GPU in your virtual machine. To fix this problem, we need to shut down all the VMs and reboot the hypervisors. We plan to do maintenance this Friday (June 7th) morning, about 9AM to 11AM.

During the maintenance, your instance will be shut down for a couple of minutes. Please save all your work before the maintenance window and avoid using the VM. If you're a user of the following project, then your instance is affected:
