ITS still awaiting power to go down. Delays on the Facilities side and something in Chemistry have been holding this up. Up time will be delayed due to this.
Power has now been turned off and turned back on in the ITS server room. Server start ups are beginning to occur. Please remember it could take up to 3 hours (until 2:00 pm) for production solutions to come online and tomorrow by noon all the non-production servers should be back online.
Briggs, Arch and Chem have extended power outages per Facilities. IT in these buildings will come online Monday at 8:30 am.
Issue with email server coming online. Vendor has been called and expected to be onsite within 60 minutes. No ETA on email at this point.
Vendor on site attempting to resolve email issue
They are continuing the effort. Please hang tight.
The vendor has gone to pick up parts in Troy and will be back shortly. The problem is not a bad one, it should be just a matter of time for the parts to arrive.
Vendor has replaced parts. System back online. Mail is now processing through at this time. Email is now back online at the University.
