[Cee-grad-students] DOWNTIME - 1/2/2026 - 5pm - MCECS services Portal for card access, lockers, and printer charges
by Janaka Jayawardena 17 Dec '25

17 Dec '25
Yes, it’s happening on a holiday but just in case people are trying to use it, be aware that we will be bringing down the server that runs the services portal (services.cecs.pdx.edu) for an operating system upgrade. This should happen at about 5pm on Friday, January 2nd. The downtime is expected to be short (about an hour tops). When it is down, users will not be able to submit CAT-managed card access requests, do locker management, or pay for additional printing quota. If you have any questions, please contact support(a)cat.pdx.edu -- Janaka Jayawardena IT Director - MCECS _______________________________________________ Allofthem mailing list -- allofthem(a)lists.cecs.pdx.edu To unsubscribe send an email to allofthem-leave(a)lists.cecs.pdx.edu

[Cee-grad-students] DOWNTIME - 12/18/2025 - 5pm-midnight - Linux Systems and Stash File Server
by Janaka Jayawardena 11 Dec '25

11 Dec '25
On Thursday, December 18th, we will be patching all our Linux systems. The work will also include an operating system upgrade to our Stash File Server. While the work will mainly affect Linux based systems and services, Windows users’ access to stashes will be down during the Stash File Server downtime. The work will begin at 5pm (earlier than our usual patch downtimes) and components of the work could stretch on until midnight. The work involves patching and rebooting most Linux hosts (Ubuntu and Rocky9 distros). This includes file servers and computer lab Linux systems.Expect sporadic outages as the patching progresses. Systems/services affected will include: - linux.cs.pdx.edu - ada/babbage/dbclass/quizors - CS - CS Linux lab systems in FAB 88 - CS - linux.cecs.pdx.edu - ruby/rita - general MCECS - Linux systems in FAB 55-17 - general MCECS - phobos/deimos/mo/auto - ECE - openVPN - Linux home directories and research stashes - Windows access to project/research stashes We will work with our users on dedicated research systems to schedule an acceptable time to patch them. However, file server downtimes will also affect them regardless. Research and project stashes will be down while the related file server has its OS upgraded. This will affect Windows users accessing stashes. Make sure that you have saved any open files and logged out before the reboots begin.
