⏰ REMINDER: Annual shutdown will begin on June 2nd at 9:00 PM
We are approaching our annual maintenance period, where Unity will be completely offline starting on June 2nd, at 9:00 PM, for necessary maintenance and upgrades. We expect to be back online by 9AM, June 5, if not earlier. This coincides with the annual shutdown at the datacenter Unity lives at, the MGHPCC.
We encourage you to keep an eye out on our Unity User Community Slack where you can receive reminders about the shutdown and get the most up-to-date information from the Unity team.

Ahead of the annual shutdown, /project and /nese storage will be going offline at 4:00 PM on June 2, 2025, due to the timing of the NESE storage team’s shutdown. We encourage you to plan accordingly!
