We experienced portfolio slowness at 8:30 AM this morning. The portfolio slowness has cleared and we are continuing to monitor it.

Wesfiles is still offline due to unanticipated difficulties encountered during the upgrade procedure. We expect to have the system back up by 4:30PM today. The upgrade problems were not evident during test upgrades of the Wesfiles system performed in preparation for today’s maintenance. The vendor of the software has been engaged throughout the process, but have not been able to offer a solution that would allow the upgrade to complete. We will be rolling back to the previous stable version of Wesfiles and will reschedule the upgrade after the problems have been resolved.

There will be a 1 hour network outage on Wednesday, January 13, from 6PM to 7PM affecting the following buildings:

Clark Hall
200 Church – dorm
Alpha Delta
North/south College
Judd
Olin
Pac
Allbritton
Chapel
Freeman
Center for the Americas
President’s residence

This outage is to perform important hardware maintenance before the beginning of semester.

Due to unforeseen problems with the update, Wesfiles is offline longer than we hoped. At this point, we think we will have it back online between 1:00 and 1:30 PM. We apologize for the delay of this notification while we determined the scope of the issue and timeframe to resolution.
