Intermittent Network Problems – Some Servers Inaccessible
About 2:30pm Info Systems began receiving reports that the EMU web server was not available. Early indications were that the trouble was with the network. As Info Systems dug deeper into the problem it became apparent that several servers were inaccessible.
As of 4:00pm Info Systems isolated the problem to be a network hardware component but the full extent of the problem is still being determined. As individual server connections are identified as not working they are being re-located to different connections on the network that are functioning.
4:30 Update: All affected servers have been moved to functioning network ports.
Webserver unresponsive
The webserver was unresponsive. All systems are now functional.
