Anouncements

UMIACS data center outage Feb 27 2011 8am-5pm

When: Sunday February 27, 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 will support email queuing during the outage so we will not bounce or warn any users of delivery. However, this will not provide any support to read or send email.

If you have any questions or comments please contact staff@umiacs.umd.edu.

New UNIX Print System

We are pleased to announce the immediately available CUPS print system for our UNIX (rhel/ubuntu) users. Please contact staff@umiacs.umd.edu with any issues.
