Maintenance scheduled for Saturday

December 14th, 2011
We need to perform time-critical maintenance that will require interruptions of computing services late Wednesday and again on Saturday:

- Wednesday, 14-Dec, at 11:00 p.m. the Windows file server winfs will be briefly unavailable so that we can increase allocations of various virtual resources.

- Saturday, 17-Dec, from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m., all central departmental computing services will be unavailable, including web, printing, e-mail, and Linux & Windows file services.  Please note that users of ASC Exchange for e-mail will not experience an interruption of that service.

We apologize for the interruptions and for the inconvenience they might cause you.
