Oracle has just released their January “Critical Patch Update.” IRIS staff will be applying this update to our Oracle database beginning at 6pm on Sunday, Jan 22. We estimate this process will take three to four hours, but could take up to six. During this time, applications which rely on the database will be unavailable. This includes the Network database query and request forms, and the Account request and query forms.

We regret any inconvenience this may cause.

Please send questions or comments to help@eecs.
