The property management group that oversees Weill Cornell's 575 Lexington Avenue location has announced that it will be coordinating an electrical shutdown with Con Ed on Friday, February 28. All electrical power at 575 Lexington will be disconnected Friday evening.
In preparation, ITS will begin powering down its data center in the building at 6 p.m. on February 28. ITS will restore services on Saturday afternoon at 4 p.m.
How will this affect you?
ITS will have to power down our data center located at 575 Lexington Avenue during this timeframe. As a result, you may experience intermittent connectivity or be unable to use certain services. Our Operations team is currently determining the impact and whether it extends beyond users located at 575 Lexington Avenue. We will provide more information in the coming week.
In addition, computers, phones and other electronic equipment will be turned off in this location.
What do you need to do?
Once ITS has determined the impact on our services, we will send out further instructions to assist you in preparing for this electrical shutdown.
