Campus Network Outage: 10pm July 29th through 5am July 30th

From UW-Stout Telecommunications and Networking:

Due to a fiber-backbone move taking place in Eau Claire, the campus will be without internet access from 10 p.m., Thursday, July 29, until 5 a.m., Friday, July 30.

I expect webwork.uwstout.edu to be unavailable during that time as well.

Server Reconfigured

Our server (webwork.uwstout.edu) was reconfigured to run 32-bit operating system.

All courses were backed up Tuesday, May 24 at 2pm. They should be back online now.

It turns out that 64-bit operating system requires about 3x more memory than 32-bit OS to run WeBWorK efficiently.

Sunday Outage: 10:35am-12:17pm, May 02

There was an outage this Sunday, May 02 between 10:35am-12:17am. My guess is that the power was down in the building where the server is housed.

WeBWorK server was not available until 10am

Our WeBWorK server (webwork.uwstout.edu) seemed to be unavailable until 10am today. My guess is that the entire UW-Stout network was isolated from the rest of the internet due to some maintenance work.

An update will follow as soon as more information is available.

WeBWorK server reboot at 4:30 today

WeBWorK server will be unavailable for a few minutes today starting at 4:30pm CST due to reboot.

Short Outage Today: 10 minutes sometime between 4pm and 5pm

Our WeBWorK server will be unavailable for a few minutes between 4pm and 5pm.

Update: the outage is over.

Networking Issues on Campus

UW-Stout Campus had some issues with networking this morning. It appears that everything has been resolved already.
