This scheduled maintenance will occur over the weekend from Friday, May 5th at 11:00pm EST – Saturday, May 6th at 11:00pm EST.”

MyEMU and Jenzabar EX Scheduled Outage

Tomorrow morning, Friday April 21 from 6:30-7:00 AM, is a scheduled outage for Jenzabar EX and myEMU. Both Jenzabar EX and myEMU will be unavailable during this time. No other systems will be affected by this outage.

We’ve scheduled this outage at an unusual time to correct a problem that causes some EX programs to crash. The need for this fix is urgent. We apologize for any inconvenience.

If you use EX and your computer is not shut down during the upgrade (i.e. before you leave for the day today), you will need to restart it after the upgrade for EX to work correctly.

If you have questions or concerns please contact the Information Systems Helpdesk: helpdesk@emu.edu or 540.432.4357 (x4357 on the Harrisonburg campus).
