Scheduled for Apr 22, 19:00 - 21:00 PDT
Scheduled
ITS has scheduled the following maintenance:
When: Tuesday, April 22 from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. PT
IMPACT: On Tuesday, April 22 from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. PT, the Office of Information Assurance, Security Engineering Services, will be upgrading the firewalls that service the SDSC Colo datacenter and the East Campus Node N networks. These firewall clusters operate in a high availability cluster and take advantage of failover protocols to maintain network uptime. During the failover events, short, sub-minute, network interruption is expected as traffic moves over to the stand-by unit. There will be multiple reboots as we need to process through a few versions of firmware to follow a recommended upgrade path.
Please contact ITS Service Desk at (858)246-HELP(4357) or servicedesk@ucsd.edu if you have any questions or concerns.
