===UMIACS Private Networks Downtime Tuesday May 12th 5am===
We will be taking a short downtime on the UMIACS private networks on
Tuesday May 12th between the hour of 5am-6am.  This is all machines with
an IP address beginning with 192.168, which includes most user
desktops.  Users on each subnet can expect an approximately 20 minute
downtime during which they will not be able to connect to network
resources.
External access to major resources such as mail, file servers, and
clusters will NOT be affected.
This downtime is a part of our efforts to upgrade our core and backbone
network capacity.  The new network configuration will allow fully
non-blocking network access between internal and external UMIACS
networks, and access the benefits of recent 10 gigabit ethernet
updates.  Currently all internal traffic must traverse a single gigabit
line through a proxy server to access any resources.  We expect that
users making use of file servers will see a noticeable improvement in
performance. Thanks in advance for your patience,

Webmail Upgrade Wednesday May 20th 2009 8pm

We are going to be upgrading our Webmail service on Wednesday May 20th 2009 8pm. Our old SquirrelMail based webmail will be available untill Wednesday June 24th 2009 at which time it will be taken down. All filtering and vacation rules should be updated through the Webmail interface.

The URL for the new system will be,

  https://webmail.umiacs.umd.edu/roundcubemail

and you will be automatically redirected from the main page https://webmail.umiacs.umd.edu

Please see the documentation for the new system at,

  https://wiki.umiacs.umd.edu/umiacs/Webmail

This system provides a substantial performance boost especially to large mailboxes. It also has a much cleaner and more accessible interface. Please note if you have any questions please email us at staff@umiacs.umd.edu.
