Maintenance of EMU's network equipment is scheduled for Thursday, October 16th, beginning at 6 p.m. and completing by midnight. During the maintenance all systems will remain online, but access to those systems will be disrupted as maintenance is performed.
During the upcoming maintenance window, critical updates will be made to the primary campus firewalls. As a result, internet connectivity across campus will be significantly impacted and could remain unavailable for the full duration of the scheduled outage window.
This maintenance may be completed before the end of the allocated window. However, the full window is reserved in case issues emerge during the work. This maintenance is scheduled for this date and time to minimize impact on students, faculty and their access to campus services. Please plan to schedule work around these outages.
Cloud based services such as Google Mail and Canvas will remain accessible to anyone working from an off-campus location.
Please contact the Help Desk at (734) 487-2120 if you have any questions about this scheduled downtime. We appreciate your patience during this important and required system outage.
