10/28: Emergency server maintenance

Emergency Maintenance

Description

ITS will be performing emergency maintenance on our departmental servers on  Wednesday, Oct. 28, from 7 p.m. – 10 p.m.  This maintenance is being performed in response to a critical security vulnerability.  

ITS may need to deploy additional patches in the coming days in response to the vulnerability. In this case, a communication will be sent.

Alert End:

How Will This Affect You?

This maintenance affects anyone who is currently hosting services with ITS. During the maintenance window, individuals may experience slow response, limited access, inability to connect, or no interruption. Every effort will be made to minimize the time when servers are being patched and, therefore, unavailable.
