Today,Thursday, June 14, 2012, there will be a couple
unavoidable network interruptions that will impact communication between our
campuses. We regret having one of these outages occur during normal
business hours but we have a very limited window of time available to address
issues at our Internet Service Provider’s colocation site which hosts some of
the University’s critical network equipment. The work on this day
completes the work begun on May 30, 2012.
Starting at 1:00 pm, connectivity to the Law Campus into and
out of the campus will be down until 5:00 pm. Should the work be
completed prior to that time (and we are optimistic it will be), service will
be restored as soon as it is available. Connections originating from the
Law School campus to the Internet, TitanConnect and other McNichols servers will
be down during this time. Network connections within the Law Campus to
Law servers will remain available at all times.
Starting at 5:00 pm, connectivity to the Dental Campus into
and out of the campus will be down until 9:00 pm. Should the work be completed
prior to that time (and we are optimistic it will be), service will be restored
as soon as it is available. Connections originating from the Dental
School campus to the Internet, TitanConnect and other McNichols servers will be
down during this time. Network connections within the Dental Campus to
Dental servers (including Axium) will remain available at all times.
Connections from UHC to Axium will be down during this time.
Email sent from the McNichols campus or outside the
University to the Law and Dental campuses during these outages will be
delivered and will be readable once the campus has regained network
access or if the user has accessed from a location outside of the campus.
Updates regarding availability will be posted on the ITS Outage
Blog located at http://udm-its.blogspot.com.
If you have questions about this, please feel free to
contact ITS at its@udmercy.edu.

Unfortunately, there was a situation where Corktown went offline for about 20 minutes prematurely. This has been resolved.
The law portion is complete, well ahead of the 5pm proposed end-time. Thank you for your patience during this portion of the project.
The work to complete the relocation of the bridge to Corktown went longer than expected and was completed at 10:30 pm. We apologize for the length of time it took.
