Oracle Calendar server unresponsive
The server was running, but it was not possible to log in as administrator. After a “hard” reset, fsck ran and corrected file system errors. Ran calendar database repairs and then started the calendar server.
Email Delivery Delay
A routine maintenance procedure needs to be performed on one of the email servers. This will result in a delay in delivery of new email messages while the procedure is being performed. After the procedure is finished new messages will be delivered.
Mail delivery delays
A problem occurred during the night on one of EMU’s mail servers that prevented delivery of new messages. No messages were lost, however, they were just delayed until the problem was fixed.
You may have received warning messages informing you that your message couldn’t be sent for four hours. If so, you do not need to resend your message. It will be delivered normally.

Novell server FS hung again.

mail server problems
On Friday evening a database problem occurred on the mail server. The server was brought back online but the original database issue had not been entirely resolved and errors were occurring. The server was available intermittently during this outage while a more effective solution was put in place.
Long Distance Outage
We are experiencing another long-distance service outage, we have contacted our carrier (Qwest) and expect to have it resolved this morning.
If you need to call long distance and have an EMU calling card you should use that until the system is resolved.
=================
2:00pm, Mon, 8/23: Our trouble ticket has escalated throughout the day with Qwest, we are now at their highest level. Qwest is working with other companies at this time to resolve the outage. We hope to have this resolved yet today, but we cannot give a definitive time as to when it will be fixed.
=================
5:00pm, Mon, 8/23: Received notification from Qwest that a Verizon representative will be here at 8:00 A.M Tuesday (8/24) to test the local loop with the Central Office here in town. Until then, service will be unavailable.
=================
11:20am, Tue, 8/24: Verizon appears to have fixed the problem. Service seems to be working again. There appears to have been a bad connection on Verizons connection between our termination point and the local central office.

Long Distance Outage
We are currently experiencing intermittent long distance outages due to circuit problems with our carrier. We hope to have the problem resolved by the morning of 8/20.
Problem was resolved around 8:30 this morning but we kept a trouble ticket open with Qwest until this afternoon in case the problem persisted. No problems were reported, ticket has been closed.
