Update (4:30 p.m. 7/31/06): Students should be able to access their inboxes, but may not be able to access any folders. We are running a process which will restore this ability, however, it must rebuild each account one at a time. Full functionality will hopefully be available later tonight.

| 07/28/2006 | Due to circumstances beyond our control the Clean Access upgrade planned for this weekend will not occur. The upgrade had to be rescheduled due to a Cisco Systems unexpected software update, which requires a change in equipment. A service note will be posted with the new upgrade times as it becomes available. UPS Upgrades will continue as previously planned. Network services to Violette Hall, the south half of campus and the Internet will be briefly unavailable while the UPS systems are being replaced. |

Any email during the suspension of service was queued for delivery. |
| 07/17/2006 | This weekend the old Trumannt Windows domain will be shut down. All known Windows domain references were switched to the Truman Active Directory domain quite some time ago. If you have any questions about the shut down of the Trumannt domain please contact the ITS HelpDesk. |
| 07/15/2006 | Security patches are to be applied to the Exchange Server on Friday, July 14th, during the regularly scheduled maintenance window. This maintenance will cause a suspension of service. Email will be queued for delivery during this time. |
| 07/15/2006 | **Update** The Network Applications Server (SS1) has been migrated to a new server. The new server has been renamed to keep the same name of SS1. All applications are functioning properly except ACL (due to hardware license dongle issue) and MikTex Help files are unavailable. We will investigate the issues further and resolve them as soon as possible. Please contact the Help Desk at helpdesk@truman.edu or 785-4544 to report any other Network Application issues.
The Network Applications Server (SS1) will be upgraded to a new server on Friday, July 14th from 5:30PM to 7:30PM. During the upgrade, applications running from the S: or X: drive will be unavailable to insure that all data is copied to the new server. This includes the following network applications: SPSS, Peachtree Accounting, ACL, Crystal Ball, AICPA, MikTex, SIGI and others. To insure a smooth transition, this new server will also be named SS1. For this reason, we do not expect any action to be required by our customers. However, in some cases, users may need to reboot their computers to have the S: or X: drive mapped to the new server. |
