Web services upgrade, Friday July 5

by

IRIS-provided web services will be migrated to new Red Hat 9 servers on Friday, July 5th beginning at 10am. This will affect people.eecs, www2.eecs, and all the project websites hosted by IRIS. This should be transparent to most people, but users of apps.eecs.berkeley.edu might have to upgrade their code due to new versions of the supported languages. These people have been previously contacted.

As usual, please send any questions or concerns to help@eecs.berkeley.edu.

Upgrading dhcp.eecs Friday, July 5

by

On Friday, July 5, from about noon to 2pm, we will be performing an OS upgrade for dhcp.eecs.

During this time, DHCP service will be handled by our backup DHCP server, so there should be no significant interruption of service — but no new DHCP updates will be processed (i.e. new system network registrations will not become effective until after the upgrade is complete).
