This upgrade is consisting of several phases and if the system appears to be online, that does not necessarily mean that work is finished. Interruption in service may resume at any time and it won’t be specifically announced. Please check this blog to make sure that system is available before you start using Blackboard again.

Users won’t notice changes in the way Blackboard works. If you experience problems after the system upgrade, please report these in usual way (contact IDS, open help desk ticket).
