Machine Room Power Maintenance

March 2, 2011 by IRIS Staff

We are not expecting any outages or impact to the network gear as we do have redundant power or switch services so users should not be aware of the outage. However, this notification is just in case of something unexpected. Unfortunately, we are not able to accomplish this work outside of normal business hours.
