On Friday, July 28, 2017, between 12:01 am and 12:30 am, OIT will be performing Network maintenance affecting portions of the Boca Datacenter. There may be some end-user impact as some services become temporarily unavailable.
Office of Information Technology will be performing routine systems maintenance which includes but is not limited to rebooting Windows servers as deemed necessary, installing critical patches and other health checks on Thursday, 07/27/2017 from 3:00 AM to 7:00 AM during OIT maintenance window. In addition, the following systems will be specifically impacted:
************************************************************************************
Server maintenance – Certification Authority OS Upgrade
Description of change: We will be upgrading the operating system of our internal certification authority server.
Downtime window start: 3:00 AM
Downtime window end: 6:00 AM
Affected services: Internal certificate services (requesting new cert, renewing, crl checking).
Affected systems: BOCCA01.ad.fau.edu
Expected End-user impact: During this time, there may be unintended outages, e.g. SCCM may not be able to push software/updates during this window as it relies on certificates for encrypted communication between distribution points and endpoints. Any internal services that rely on certificates for encypted commuication will fail or present a warning of an untrusted certificate.
*************************************************************************************
Server Maintenance – Webnet server migration
Description of change: We are moving the webnet servers to a more suitable network for their usage.
Downtime window start: 5:00 AM
Downtime window end: 6:00 AM
Affected services: Monitors that may be monitoring webnet4 through webnet8
Affected systems: webnet4 through webnet8
Expected End-user impact: During this time we do not expect any end user impact. Some monitoring services may show the fau site as down while dns is changed. The FAU site will be up during this time.
