apps.eecs, wiki.eecs downtime Friday 8am

by

The server hosting apps.eecs.berkeley,edu, wik.eecs.berkeley.edu and some other project websites[*] will be rebooted Friday, October 17th 2014 between 8am and 9am. Total downtime should be around 5 to 10 minutes.

This server is experiencing poor network performance. This reboot will be to reconfigure the virtual machine with a new network driver which has shown significantly better performance in our testing. Current bandwith to our NFS server is lmited to around 1.2 MB/s. In testing with the new driver, we are getting around 25 MB/s.

As usual, please send any questions or comments to the IRIS helpdesk at help@eecs.berkeley.edu.

[*] The full list of affected websites is:

  • bjc.berkeley.edu
  • bsim.eecs.berkeley.edu
  • csillustrated.berkeley.edu

  • rt.eecs.berkeley.edu
  • snap.berkeley.edu

Web and mailing list server patching, Apr 10 at 7am

by

The department’s web server (www.eecs, www.cs), mailing list server (lists.eecs), wiki server (wiki.eecs), application server (apps.eecs) and jabber server (jabber.eecs) will be restarted Wednesday, April 10 at 7am.

On Tuesday evening these servers will have operating system patches installed which require a restart. They will be restarted automatically at 7am Wednesday morning and should be back in service by 7:15am.

These servers will now be patched (and rebooted if necessary) on the morning following first Tuesday of each month, the same schedule as our Windows servers.
