CIFS shares from Project/Home unavailable

August 14, 2026 by Lars Rohrbach

Windows and MacOS systems use CIFS shares on our NetApp fileservers for home directories and project space. With the sunsetting of our EECS Active Directory, we are in the process of migrating our NetApp to the Campus Active Directory. In that process, we’ve run into some unexpected issues, and are working with campus IT staff to resolve them.

At this time, CIFS shares remain unavailable.

NFS shares, as typically used by Linux/Unix systems in EECS, are not affected.

We apologize for the service interruption. We will continue working with campus staff to restore CIFS service as soon as possible.

August IRIS Server Patching

August 7, 2026 by Lars Rohrbach

Microsoft will release their patches for the month on Tuesday, August 11th, 2026. Various IRIS Windows and Linux servers will be patched and rebooted Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday.

Linux servers lists.eecs, iris2.eecs, (for access to the network and roster databases) will be patched and rebooted Wednesday night. DNS servers cronus and themis may also be briefly unavailable while rebooting at approximately 8:00pm Tuesday.

PRINT, WINTERM, and WDS will automatically patch and reboot Wednesday, August 12th, at 3:00am. WINTERM may be unavailable until 10:00am Wednesday, depending on additional software updates.

On Thursday, August 13th, the departmental DHCP server is scheduled for downtime from about 9am to 9:30am (actual downtime is expected to be shorter than scheduled). Linux login servers login.eecs/login-mfa.eecs will also be patched and rebooted around this time.
