Spring Break Improvements to Cause Minor Service Interruptions
It's time for spring cleaning! This weekend, services like MyDocs, Gizmo and SharePoint will be briefly interrupted during routine maintenance. On Sunday, maintenance to apply network improvements will cause slow internet connections in several residence halls and other buildings. Next week, Exchange Online email for faculty and staff will be briefly interrupted during special maintenance starting Wednesday evening.
Don't forget! Computer labs in the Arkansas Union, J.B. Hunt Center and Northwest Quad B will be closed to upgrade to the new virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI).
Visit the IT Status Monitor for maintenance details, and be prepared for a relaxing Spring Break. Follow @UARKAlerts for timely information about maintenance and outages.
