We have a new test queue available to all users called "next-eval" which has 2,688 nodes with the new compute image. See this page for queue limits and updated node counts for multiple queues: https://docs.alcf.anl.gov/aurora/running-jobs-aurora/. We encourage users to test the image by compiling and running your applications in the test queue. You can share your feedback by emailing support@alcf.anl.gov. NOTE: The UANs do not have the new image. 

The new image includes updates to Intel's User (UMD) and Kernel Mode Drivers (KMD) (Agama 1146.12 / rolling release 2523.12), and OneAPI 2025.2.0. Details of the full change log can be found here: https://docs.alcf.anl.gov/aurora/system-updates/#2025-09-08
