This will affect networking in the following locations:
Wired and wireless networks offline: * Soda Hall
* Cory Hall
* Sutardja Dai Hall
* Jacobs Hall
* BWRC
Wireless networks offline, wired remains online: * Blum Hall
* Calvin Lab
Hosted resources such as the EECS website, file servers, etc. will be offline and globally inaccessible.
The facilities maintenance window is scheduled from 7:30 AM to 1 PM, but we anticipate the network and critical services should be back by 11AM if all goes well.
The intent is to perform these tests annually going forward; however we will learn from this year’s procedure and aim to keep more critical services online in the future.
If you have any questions about this maintenance, please contact help@eecs.berkeley.edu.
UPDATE
[2016-12-22 14:13:21 | Lars Rohrbach]
We ran into a number of difficulties on the electrical side which delayed restoration of services, but basic networking (wired and wireless) were brought back at approximately 12PM.
We initially experienced some slowness in the LDAP system, and we also encountered trouble in bringing the NetApp file servers online. As a result the department website and file storage, as well as other services which rely on them, were unavailable until about 1:15-1:30pm.
At this time, all critical services have been restored. If you are still encountering any issues, please contact help@eecs.
