ITS is planning to update firmware on campus firewalls on Tuesday, 3/18/14 between 5:00AM and 7:00AM. We anticipate two outages of about 10 minutes in length. During these outages Internet access from on-campus will be unavailable. If you are off-campus, access to all BigRedID services, such as MyDenison, will be interrupted during these outages.
6:25 maintenance completed; all services appear to be working.

Update: Banner Xtender (or BDM) has been successfully updated – 3 PM
On Saturday 3/15, upgrades to the Xtender document imaging platform will prevent access to that system for the entire day and to Banner for periods during the day. If this work is unable to be completed on 3/15, it will continue on 3/16.
On Sunday 3/16, maintenance to campus network equipment will occur between 7AM and 12PM. The primary purpose is to repair file system corruption that contributed to the January network outage. Expect no (or severely limited) access to all Denison network resources, including MyDenison and Blackboard, while either on-campus or off-campus during this time. Off-campus access to Denison Apps and the Denison website will still be available but you may be presented with Google’s login screen for Denison Apps during this time period instead of the BigRedID login screen.
Wireless maintenance will occur on 2/27/14 between 5:00AM and 7:00AM to upgrade software for wireless equipment in Academic and Administrative areas. This will also effect Chamberlin Hall, Monomoy House, Shannon and Bancroft. The maintenance is expected to cause intermittent wireless network outages in these locations.
ITS is planning to replace hard drives on campus firewalls on Tuesday, 2/25/14 between 5:00am and 7:00am. During this period the Internet may be unavailable from on campus and access to MyDenison may be unavailable from off campus.
