<Attention>

Connecting to MA cluster with Windows XP, Vista and Windows 8 are prohibited
You may have known that Microsoft ended their support for Windows XP (April 9, 2014), Vista (April 11, 2017) and Windows8
(Jan. 13, 2016). It is widely recognized that continuing use of those systems after the support end might have plenty of security
risks.
For applying these measures correspondingly, at Tsukuba campus, those operation systems are unable to connect to MA cluster.
Please replace your PC with another Operation system and apply again.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
