The defective switch has been replaced, so Trimble network is back to normal. 8:30pm 4/6/2013.
A switch failed in Trimble 107 IDF causing an outage of the wireless and most of the basement and first floor wired jacks. We have restored the wireless and most of the building, by by-passing the defective switch. We are working to configure a new switch and replacing it asap. I would anticipate approximately one hour before the entire building is back in service. 9:10pm 4/6/2013.
[Completed 4/5/13 1:30 AM] All scheduled switch upgrades have been completed. Remaining required upgrades will be scheduled at a later time.
[Original] We will upgrade network switches on Friday, April 5, starting at 10:00 PM until 2:00 AM on Saturday, April 6. The buildings affected are Wheelock, McIntyre, Communications House, and Howarth. Thank you for your patience as we complete this important work.
The instance of blogs.pugetsound.edu has been moved to a new server and upgraded to the latest version of WordPress. Users can now access their blogs using their current Puget Sound login ID. Due to the nature of the upgrade from version 3.0.2 to 3.5.1, some themes used previously are not compatible with the new version. We will work closely with site administrators to ensure a smooth transition and select appropriate themes that will work. Please contact Giot at gconcepcion@pugetsound.edu or 253.879.3773 for assistance.
