***Banner Certificate issue***

As many of you may know, we are currently working with our vendor to resolve an issue that is causing Banner users to get a certificate error when logging into Banner forms. Although we don’t have a precise time for the resolution, we are hoping to get the fix installed which will cause a brief outage to on-campus Banner forms. Our goal is to perform this fix after business hours. For more information on this fix, please visit our blog at https://blogs.adams.edu/computing

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

Computing Services is aware and working with our vendor to correct an error regarding an expired certificate that campus Banner users are seeing when logging into Banner this morning. At this point, you can still get into Banner by continuing through the warning messages, but if you have any questions or would like someone to help walk you through this, please call our Helpdesk at x7741. We hope to resolve the issue soon to address this inconvenience. We will post any status updates to our Computing Services blog at https://blogs.adams.edu/computing

As always, if you have any questions, please call us at x7741 or contact us via email at computingservices@adams.edu. Thanks for your patience.

ASU’s Computing Services and Facilities Services have developed a coordinated move procedure for on-campus moves. This is in effect for all office, computer and phone moves. This procedure is different than it has been in the past, and will allow for better coordination between the requester, Facilities Services and Computing Services staff. Moves will only be done one day per week, on Wednesdays. All requests for moves will be reviewed the Wednesday following receipt of request, and the actual move will be scheduled for the following Wednesday. Once the move schedule is locked in for the following week, it can not be added to.

Tickets are still needed for Facilities Services & Computing Services (both for the computer move and phone move).

Please be sure to include the following in your work order / tickets:

Name of Person Moving
Phone number to be moved
Name of computer being moved
Location being moved from
Destination Location
List of computer equipment to be moved
List of furniture to be moved
Note any special requests for furniture placement, rearrangement, or if furniture/computer need to be moved out of destination in preparation for move-in.

To request a move, please open a work order with Facilities Services at https://login.myschoolbuilding.com/msb?acctNum=1574793216&productID=MD.

Please open one ticket for the ‘Desktop’ queue, and one ticket for the ‘Phone Service’ queue at https://www.adams.edu/administration/computing/request_forms.php

Thank you for your support in following this steam-lined procedure. We believe this will make moves much more smooth and well-coordinated than in times past. We appreciate your help.
