Update @ 6:37 PM: After a rolling restart was performed, course menus appear to be consistently stable and content is available. Users also report the error messages are no longer appearing. 

At approximately 10:00am on October 29th, UMBC users began reporting error messages upon attempting to access Blackboard courses. Instructional Technology staff opened a ticket with Blackboard Support and are continuing to monitor the service disruption.

As of 11:15am, this issue remains under investigation with Blackboard support.

Users may observe missing items from course menus including attendance, announcements, groups, and messages. Users who are able to log in courses may experience degraded performance and difficulty accessing course content and assessments. Most users are able to log into Blackboard itself and the issue is not system wide at this time.

Clearing the browser cache may offer temporary relief for the issue. 

If you encounter an issue when accessing a Blackboard course, please open an RT ticket and provide the session debug code, if available. The unique error id can be shared with Blackboard support to help clarify the errors observed in your course(s). Screenshots are also helpful.

This post will be updated with additional information as we receive it.

The team also includes Co-I’s Hongbin Yu (613/GSFC) and Zhibo Zhang (610/UMBC), and Collaborator Jianwu Wang (UMBC). The period of performance is 10/04/24 - 9/30/25.

Dr. Zheng provided a summary of the proposal:
"The proposal aims to apply the commercial AWS cloud to prompt the open-science activities of the selected MEASURES and EMIT projects, including open sourcing the data records and algorithms. The primary goal of the MEASURES project is to create a Comprehensive and Augmented Multi-decadal Remote-sensing Observations of Dust (CAMRO-Dust) data record by integrating multiple satellites and developing novel approaches. The goal of the EMIT project is to provide a unique observation-based, spectrally-resolved clear sky SW dust DRE at the top of the atmosphere (TOA) in the desert regions based on a novel method enabled by the hyperspectral observations of the EMIT instrument."
