- The ADSM Backup server will be DOWN from Saturday December 28 until Wednesday
January 1 in order to upgrade it to a much faster computer. You can neither
back up nor restore files until then, either from your PC or via the dsmc
command on tigger, icarus, and borg. Files already backed up will be safe
and can be restored after the upgrade is complete.
Users of the automated backup scheduler on their PCs will need to restart the
scheduler program after January 1, because the downtime will make it time out.
The easiest way to do this is to simply reboot the whole PC.
We hope the holiday scheduling of this will minimize the inconvenience of this
necessary downtime which will improve the service after it is complete.

At about 12:10 PM a
fire safety switch failed in the ITS datacenter. There was no
fire but the switch blocked all power to the room. Over one hundred
servers, in addition to Gemini, were inoperable. After power was
restored to the room, all machines were checked and
restarted. Most systems were operational by 2:45 PM. At
this time, group drives (g: drives) on server UIMCC20 are
unavailable.
If you are having problems, other than the
group drives, please contact the Help Desk at 3-7717 or send an email to
ITSHelp.
