Update: Data Center Backup Power Maintenance
Tonight during repairs to the Engineering backup power system it was discovered that additional hardware will be needed in order to fully restore functionality. We are working with the vendor to acquire and install the additional hardware and are hoping to have this work completed by tomorrow.
At this time the backup power system is in a depreciated state and we are taking precautionary steps to migrate some services to a secondary data center. We will continue to provide updates as they become available. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Cisco Webex Emails
Today many staff received an email from Cisco Webex regarding the creation of their new account. This email is legitimate, but we didn't intend to announce this yet as we are still finalizing the details of the rollout.
We are working on integrations that will allow all faculty, staff and students to have a personal Webex space that can be used to host audio and video meetings with screen share capabilities.
We are very excited to offer this service to the campus, and we will be sending a more official release with detailed instructions and tutorials on use within the next few weeks.
If you have any questions or concerns about this please feel free to reach out to me.

All clear from the electrical work yesterday
The research park power electrical work was completed yesterday late in the afternoon. During the outage all of our equipment stayed operational and there were no unplanned disruptions in service.
We are working to bring back the high performance computing facility that we shut down ahead of the outage, but there will no further power outages in the research park related to this electrical work.
We will be conducting electrical work in our primary data center this coming Saturday morning. I will send another communication out when that work has been completed, hopefully as with this one, without any unplanned service interruptions.
As always, please email me with any questions or concerns, and we appreciate your understanding as we work to complete these projects.

Ongoing electrical work in Data Centers today and Saturday
Throughout the day today (Tuesday June 18th) electricians will be conducting maintenance in our backup data center located just off campus in the research park. During this work we do not expect to see any interruption of services. All of the equipment has multiple power supplies, and we are cutting power to only part of the room at a time so the electricians can work safely. There is always the potential for something to fail unexpectedly and I wanted to make sure the campus was aware of the on going work. We expect work to be completed later this afternoon in that data center and I'll send out another notice once full service is restored to that space.
We will also be finishing the work that started two weeks ago in our primary data center this coming Saturday. While we again do not expect any outage, we moved the work to the weekend with the gracious help from our facilities management group to avoid any potential interruptions of service with orientation.
I wanted to thank everyone for their patience and understanding as we perform this work to service the power conditioners and clean up the wiring in these spaces.
If you have any questions about this work or would like more information, please email me directly.
Thank You,
Damian

Interruption to Campus Services around 3:20pm today
This afternoon, at around 3:20pm, we suffered a power outage to one of the racks in the computer room in Engineering. This rack holds key equipment that provides data storage for a good number of servers in our infrastructure, including the the main campus website, the central UMBC sites web environment, Peoplesoft Campus Solutions and the Peoplesoft HR system. Power was restored within a minute, and we have been working to restore connectivity as the equipment comes back online.
Service to the main website and other public facing services was restored around 4:00pm.
Service to the HR system was restored at 4:50pm, and we are finishing restoring service to the CS system which we expect to have operational by 5:30pm.
We will send another message when service has been fully restored later this afternoon.
We appreciate everyone's patience as we work to restore connectivity, if you have any questions about this outage or would like more information, please feel free to email me at
damian@umbc.edu
Thank you, and please stay tuned for additional information shortly.
