The ST file server became unavailable and needed to be restarted. Users are unable to authenticate to EMU services.

Mail login ability was restored, though problems with ST persisted.

Many major systems will be unavailable while a routine upgrade is made to our Novell NetWare file servers.

All services that require the Royal username and password will be inaccessible for most/all of the outage period.

Blackboard, Internet access and the SIS will remain available.

Student Novell server (ST) is down. It crashed this morning. Unsure of when it will be back.

The ST Novell file server wasn’t responding. Nothing was found to specificially indicate “why” so it was rebooted.

The ST and FS (student and faculty/staff) file servers need to be rebooted for the installation of some new functionality. This should be a short outage and the servers should be back by 7:45 AM

Several patches and security updates will be applied to our Novell NetWare file servers. This will affect services that use the Royal username and password, including e-mail, network file access and printing.

The SIS, Internet access and Blackboard are unaffected.

CIFS was not working properly after the Facutly/Staff file server crashed earlier today. When attempting to restart CIFS, FS crashed.
