Exchange 2007 Interface Upgrade Postponed

Updated 7/26/09 @ 3:10PM

All changes were backed out and all mail delivery is back to normal by 3:00 PM.

Due to unforeseen issues with the Exchange 2007 interface upgrade today, the change is postponed.

Currently we are reverting back to the previous configuration, which should be complete by 3:00 PM today.  During the change and roll-back periods (8:00 AM to 3:00 PM Sunday, August, 26th) some mail sent from outside of the University may not have been accepted.  Any user sending email that failed will get an error message and will be able to re-send the message after 3:00 PM.

This post will be updated when the roll-back is complete.

Non Production patch maintenance

We are currently experience patch related issues with the following non-production servers ( Pilchuck, Lummi, Kickstart and Moodle2). We are working to resolve these issues as quickly as possible. A notification will be sent out as soon as these issues have been resolved.
