===UMIACS Linux Systems will reboot Thursday 1/13/10 at 8:00PM===
Due to a critical security vulnerability was revealed for Linux systems running RHEL5 (RHSA-2011:0004-1), all affected Linux systems will be installed with a new, secure kernel version. All affected systems will be rebooted this Thursday, 1/13/2011 at 8:00PM. A list of affected machines can be found [[LinuxRebootList-2011_01_13|here]]. If you have any questions, please contact [[HelpDesk|UMIACS Staff]].
 
===UMIACS Data Center Outage Sunday January 23rd 2011 8am-5pm===
 
When: '''Sunday January 23rd 2011 8am-5pm'''
 
UMIACS needs to take the final downtime in the project to upgrade the
south side AV Williams Bldg UPS.  This will require our main data center
to be shut down for approximately 8 hours.  During this time no UMIACS
services will be available including email (exchange or imap), web
services, networked file systems and remote access.  Additionally
workstations throughout AVW will be unavailable since they require file
systems and services that are hosted in our data center.
 
We are working to provide support for email queuing during the outage so
we will not bounce or warn any users of delivery.  This will not provide
any support to read or send email.  We will send a update on this by
Monday January 17th 2011 if we will be implementing it.
 
===Comcast DNS Issues===
We are currently experiencing issues with Comcast home internet in PG county not correctly handling DNS resolution for UMIACS hostnames, that can seem to be affecting connectivity to UMIACS. Please see [[PublicDNS]] for more information.
