Sonic Foundry will be performing maintenance on Mediasite Cloud Servers during the scheduled maintenance window on March 16th between 1:01AM EST and 5:00AM EST.

The degraded performance issue affecting WebEx has been resolved
Currently, Webex is experiencing degraded performance that may prevent users from creating or joining meetings. This issue affects both the stand-alone and canvas implementations (aka MEETS for WebEx). WebEx engineers are aware and are current investigating the problem. OIT will monitor the situation and update the University community as the situation evolves.
As part of their recovery efforts from this past weekend’s outage, Sonic foundry will be re-indexing FAU’s Mediasite site beginning 12AM 1/31/2019.
During this time, search based catalogs (which includes the majority of lecture capture classes), may show no content. This is temporary and the presentations will automatically re-appear when the process is complete. This process is scheduled to take a several hours and should be completed by 6AM 1/31/2019
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
The scheduled maintenance that began at 12:01AM last night resulted in performance issues in the environment. Some sites on the environment are currently offline. Engineers are investigating and restoring services as quickly as possible. We will send out another notice when the situation has been fully resolved and/or as more details become available.
