[RESOLVED] Mediasite Service Disruption

Cloud services have been restored, and at this time we do not anticipate any further disruptions

Restoration of the services did require restoring from a prior database backup for the site.  You may need to re-publish MDR recordings made in the last 48 hours that are missing.

If you notice any missing lecture capture presentations please submit a ticket at: https://helpdesk.fau.edu/TDClient/Requests/ServiceDet?ID=4432

We apologize for the disruptions
