Taylor computers to be down briefly
On Thursday, April 9, there will be a scheduled power outage in Taylor Hall so that facilities can perform preventive maintenance of the power systems. All computer systems in Taylor Hall will be shut down from 6 to 8 a.m., April 9 during this outage.
The following systems and services will be unavailable:
- uhura.cc.rochester.edu
- The Academic Cluster (troi.cc.rochester.edu, et al.)
- the DBVAX Cluster
- UCC Microsoft Mail Server
- University Web pages (and any departmental web pages that are housed on guinan)
- USENET News (news.cc.rochester.edu)
- The Macintosh Archive on the Taylor Appleshare server
- DNS name service provided by cc.rochester.edu (128.151.224.6)
- all terminals and workstations in Taylor Hall, including the Technology Resource Center and Macintosh classrooms in rooms 41 and 31.
If you rely on cc.rochester.edu for name service, you may notice a perceptible delay in network connections that are opened during this outage. Once opened, the connections should function normally.
If you rely on any of the above systems for e-mail, your incoming mail will be queued up on the sending systems until the servers come up. At that time, your pending mail will be delivered. You will not be able to send or receive mail while the servers are down.
If you have questions or concerns about this outage, please send mail to problem@troi.cc.rochester.edu.
