As always, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact the ASU Computing Services Helpdesk at x7741 or at computingservices@adams.edu
Thanks and have a great week and happy holiday!

***FACULTY- Notice of maintenance on PCs in all TEC Classrooms, please backup any local data***
Over the Thanksgiving week, Computing Services will be reimaging all Windows computers in the TEC Classrooms to address the slow login times that we have been seeing around campus. As part of this, if you save any files to the desktop, you will need to backup these files so that they aren’t lost in the reimaging process. If you need assistance with this, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the helpdesk for assistance.

Computing Services wants to make all students, faculty and staff aware of our scheduled maintenance taking place this Saturday. Starting at 12:00 AM and lasting until roughly 2:00 PM, ALL Banner services will be unavailable as we perform a critical Financial Aid upgrade and migration of the storage system for our Banner systems. During this time, students will be temporarily unable to login and use web services through the One Stop Student Services page for registration, etc.
We know there is never a perfect time to perform these types of upgrades, but have worked with our rDBA team to start in the early hours of the morning to reduce the impact and downtime that campus experiences.
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
