Information Services Planned Upgrade Day Scheduled for May 25, 2019 

by

Routine upgrades to the University’s mission critical networks and information systems are necessary to provide reliable and secure technology-related services.  These upgrade activities are scheduled for times when the disruption to the University community are minimized.  Plan accordingly, as the University’s networks and information systems will be unavailable during the upgrade period.

  • May 25, 2019 from 12:01 a.m. – 12:20 a.m. – Internet on campus will be unavailable, as we do an upgrade to the internet firewall.
  • May 25, 2019 from 8:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. – University networks and the majority of information systems will be unavailable.  The Information Services team is moving critical services to a more reliable hosting environment, moving a database cluster to faster hardware for performance improvement, and implementing additional network segmentation for added security.
