Status Updater

The pre-announced retirement of AFP did not occur on Monday due to CTS staff responding to the database server crash. The retirement will occur at 2:00 pm today. AFP is used only on OS X. There are few if any OS X systems still using AFP on campus, however if you have an OS X system and have trouble connecting to Helios, please see Connecting to Helios with OS X and note the “smb” in the Server Address field. If this does not solve the problem, please contact the Helpdesk at extension 4444, or via helpdesk@potsdam.edu.

CTS will be performing maintenance on the campus data network tomorrow, Wednesday, November 4, 2015. Work will begin at 6:00 P. M. and be restricted to administrative areas until 9:00 P. M. After 9:00 P. M. academic buildings will experience brief outages as network hardware is updated. These outages will be localized, but complete; resulting in no network or phone access until the updates are finished. A blog post will be made when the maintenance window is closed and all service should be back to normal. As always, please report any problems you have with CTS-provided and -supported devices and/or services to the CTS Helpdesk: helpdesk@potsdam.edu or x-4444 (315/267-4444)
