Departmental shared drive downtime 8/19

Wed, 16 Aug 2023 16:38:30 -0400

As part of our continuing commitment to security the servers that provide the department network shared drives need to be taken down so the operating system can be upgraded and patched.

This Saturday, August 19th at 9:00pm, these servers will be taken off-line. This will impact connectivity to all network shared drives with letters I: through Z: with the exception of the P: (Peoplesoft) drive. Connectivity to the shared drives should be fully restored by 11:00pm that evening. While there is no action required for end users, people may want to reboot their machine Monday morning to ensure all the drive mappings reconnect properly.

Please let us know if you have any concerns or questions.
