Banner and Computing Services Maintenance for tonight, 7/25/2013

The following maintenance activities will take place Thursday July 25th, 2013 during our normally scheduled maintenance window beginning at 9:00 PM:

Banner Maintenance:

At 9:00 PM, all Banner services including forms, Banner Printing, Self-Service Banner, and Student Services will be down for roughly two hours due to a required upgrade to the Banner General and Financial Aid modules.

New Campus File Server:

Also beginning at 9:00 PM, we will be migrating campus to our new myfiles.adams.edu file server. All your home and shared directories should be mapped automatically when you log in on Friday. If you do not see your home and shared drives, please reboot. If you still cannot see your directories, please call the Helpdesk at 7741.

With the new file server comes an upgraded web interface for accessing your files! The website remains the same: https://myfiles.adams.edu

Check out our wiki for instructions on using the upgraded interface:

Campus Print Server Migration:

All employee computers will run a script silently that will migrate your existing network mapped printers to the new print server. Local printers and banner printers will not be effected. You should notice that srvprn2 changes to srvprn3 in the printer name. You will not need to manually re-map your network printers.

The new print server uses new drivers, so the print properties windows may look slightly different. If you notice any issues please contact us at computingservices@adams.edu or at x7741.

Computing Services thanks you for your patience and understanding as we perform these critical maintenance activities. As always, if you have any questions, please call the ASU Computing Services Helpdesk at 7741 or contact us via email at computingservices@adams.edu

Thank you,

Computing Services
