Master LDAP Server Failure (Apr 2013)

ECE's master LDAP server went down on April 1 at 16:04 for uncertain reasons. It was restarted, and service was restored on April 2 at 09:50. We are currently working on replacing the master LDAP server with a newer machine.

As a result of this failure, the UBC_ECE domain controller was rejecting all logon requests and network drive access. Also, any attempts to change your password would have been unsuccessful.

Update 2013-04-02 12:30

We have noticed that the master LDAP server was not propagating changes to the slave LDAP servers. As a result, password changes and account creation have not been working in the last few hours. We are currently investigating.
