The IRIS website server (iris.eecs.berkeley.edu) was rebooted at around 11:40am today, due to unforseen complications arising from the emergency network outage at 10:40am. Immediately prior to the reboot, you may have been unable to log in to network or roster database applications, and experienced a general slowness problem. IRIS staff apologizes for inconvenience. If you are still experiencing problems with this server, please contact help@eecs immediately.

Emergency Network Outage at 10:40am
Our old firewall is struggling under the current load. As a result, we will be switching the main server net (169.229.60.0/25) to the new infrastructure. This should be a very brief outage. We will do this emergency measure at 10:40. We regret the inconvenience this may cause.
Network Disruption
From about the time of the routing changes this morning in Soda, some systems have had trouble with NFS mounting of partitions from coeus and project. The problem appears to be isolated to specific systems. The problem does not affect all systems moved to a new router this morning. The problem does not appear to be reproducible on all systems on any specific network.
At least one affected client machine seems to be fixed after a reboot.
Staff are continuing to investigate this issue.
