As part of its Change Management plan, UBC IT has scheduled some upgrades for Victoria Day weekend. Three of the changes are expected to be seamless.

However, one of them ("Configuration changes to the A1/L1 router pair") will likely result in interruption to ECE's network connectivity on Saturday May 18, between 7 am and 9 am. As a result, services that rely on our NetApp filer, including home directories, e-mail, websites, and the Request Tracker ticket system will likely be temporarily unavailable during that time.

Since NFS clients often react poorly when a NFS server is unavailable, we advise users with Linux workstations that use NFS to either shut down their machines in advance or reboot after the scheduled outage.
