October IRIS Server Patching

October 10, 2025 by Lars Rohrbach

Microsoft will release their patches for the month on Tuesday, October 14th, 2025. Various IRIS Windows and Linux servers will be patched and rebooted Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday.

PRINT, WINTERM and WDS will automatically patch and reboot Wednesday, October 15th, at 3:00am. WINTERM may be unavailable until 10:00am Wednesday, depending on additional software updates.

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

On Thursday, October 16th, 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.
