LSA Technology Services will be performing standard IT maintenance on the LSA Linux and Windows servers the weekend before the sadly-canceled Art Fair. These servers and services may be temporarily unavailable starting at 7:00 am on Saturday, July 11. All services are expected to be restored by 6:00 pm, Saturday, July 11.

What are we doing?

We're performing routine maintenance:

  • Applying software updates
  • Decommissioning and moving physical equipment
  • Performing additional software maintenance
  • Testing business continuity plans

What services will be impacted and for how long?

The following services will have intermittent outages between 7:00 am and 6:00 pm Saturday, July 11:

  • Bomgar screen-sharing
  • Citrix Digital Workspace
  • Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM)
  • SharePoint services for the college and university
  • Windows Lifecycle Management System (WLMS)

In addition there may be brief network outages inside our LSA Building data center as we consolidate down from three to two network switches.

If you have any questions about this maintenance activity, please contact the LSA Technology Services IT Service Desk (734.615.0100 x2) for assistance.
