For those of you that use the Financial Aid module, there will be an upgrade planned for 5/21/15, Thursday morning until 10:00am.Any connections to Financial Aid data will not be operational (FAM module, military subtab) while we get PowerFAIDs up to date to version 20.3.
5/21 10:30 status: various EX connections needed to be terminated to complete the upgrade. Processes have changed and next time should be smoother.
Last night, apparently due to lightning, we lost some functionality of our voicemail system. We have taken the system offline to run tests and try to restore full functionality.
Within an hour, we will send another update on the status of the system and what, if any, actions you may need to take.
Fixing a problem with the EX scheduler service knocked myEMU off-line. This was not noticed until later in the afternoon, while IS was in a team retreat.
Both problems have been fixed.
Saturday, May 9, 8:00 am to Sunday, May 10, 5:00 pm is a scheduled information systems outage for Student Information Systems (EX) and myEMU. We will be installing a major upgrade. EX and myEMU will be unavailable during this time.
We expect the outage to be for only EX and myEMU. No other systems will be affected.
Moodle will remain available at moodle.emu.edu .
If you use EX on a PC and have not shut it down for the weekend, you will need to reboot it after the update, before you first use EX next week.
If you have questions or concerns please contact the Information Systems Helpdesk: helpdesk@emu.edu or 540.432.4357 (x4357 on the Harrisonburg campus).
