All Online Services Unavailable during Network Maintenance, July 13

IT Services will perform planned maintenance from midnight to noon on Sunday, July 13, to improve campus network reliability. IT Services anticipates that all university online services, as well as wireless and network access on campus, will be unavailable for up to an hour during the maintenance period.

Online services impacted by the maintenance include, but are not limited to: the university Web presence, online forms, email, Blackboard Learn, ISIS, BASIS, webBASIS, Gizmo departmental file shares, AskIT, and all other systems requiring UARK authentication.

Although only one hour of downtime is anticipated, the Network Engineering Team reserves the full 12-hour maintenance period to address any potential issues that might arise as a result of the maintenance.
