Argos Outage Fri 22 May 2026

by

At approximately 1:50 pm on Fri 22 May 2026, Argos will be subject to an outage and upgrade that should take less than an hour. No other systems will be affected.

We strive to plan outages outside of normal business hours. Unfortunately, this outage was planned by our cloud provider and it’s required at this time. We’ll do our best to bring Argos back up to full operation as quickly as possible after the outage occurs.

If you have questions or concerns, please submit an IT help desk ticket and we’ll get back with you as quickly as possible.

Brief internet outage tonight!

by

We need to have a brief network outage tonight around midnight to upgrade some equipment. The outage should only be a minute or two and none of the Banner infrastructure will be affected. However, anything originating from a campus network and connecting to Banner or any other outside destinations will be interrupted during this time.

Partial System Outage

by

We’re experiencing partial or complete outages on some systems including Argos, AppMan, and the public-facing website (https://www.missouristate.edu/). We’re working to diagnose and fix the issues and remain unsure if all of the outages are related. I’ll post a follow-up when we have more information.
