The second of two brief power outages knocked a pair of distribution switches offline in Raymond, and one of them did not reboot cleanly when power returned. Roughly half of the academic quad was without data network for roughly ten minutes. At this time, all service is restored.
Illiad will undergo a four (4) hour maintenance window beginning at 08:30 (8:30 AM) this morning. All Illiad services will be unavailable during this maintenance window.
The Maintenance window in Stillman is now closed. All network functionality should be normal.
Network service to Stillman will be offline this evening beginning no earlier than 7:30pm and lasting (hopefully) no longer than 2 hours as we install a new network switch. Notice will be sent when things are back online.
As of 12:08pm on Tuesday, January 10, 2012 all telephony services have been 100% restored to Barrington Student Union, Draime Hall, Dunn Hall, Sisson Hall and Van Housen Hall. Thank you everyone for patience while we resolved this outage.
An large volume of suspicious traffic destined for the campus web server caused performance problems for various web services. For the moment this has been resolved and performance problems should be alleviated. Engineers will continue to monitor the situation as the day progresses.
www3 web services will be intermittently available tonight from 22:00 to 23:00 (10-11pm) to facilitate system maintenance.
A problem with a central database system caused distributed access issues to a number of systems/application including Request Tracker, Moodle, and campus blogs. Engineers have addresses the problem and most services are believed to be operating normally.
Dunn Hall was mistakenly omitted from the original announcement regarding the limited telephone outage. Please be advised that there are five buildings, Barrington Student Union, Draime Hall, Dunn Hall, Sisson Hall and Van Housen Hall are all without telephone service and will be through 01/10/12 at the very least.
As of 07:34am on 01/07/12 the BAR-SU EPN which provides telephony services for Sisson Hall, Barrington Student Union, Van Housen Hall and Draime Hall has been out of service resulting in no telephone service for the buildings previously listed. University Police may be reached by dialing 267-2222 from off-campus or 2222 from on-campus. This problem will most likely not be resolved prior to Monday, January 09, 2012 at the earliest. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you and/or your department. Posted by Brenda Bennett TelCom Manager @ 13:52 on 01/07/12.
