[State_HelpDesks] Extended Maintenance Window for Sunday, September 7th, 2008

[Allran, Steve]

Hello, 

   Oregon E-government needs an extended maintenance window on Sunday,
September 7th, 2008, from 10:00pm until Monday, September 8th, 2008, at
8:00am. This maintenance is expected to last approximately 4 hours, but
as a precaution, please plan for the entire window.

   Our normal maintenance window is every Monday morning from midnight
to 3:00am.  

   This maintenance is to apply a significantly larger than normal
number of vendor operating and security patches. These patches take
longer than is normally required for regular patching to install. This
will require all Solaris systems and applications to be unavailable.
This includes Oregon.gov, Teamsite, GovNet, and all Commerce stores and
applications. Here is a time table of the proposed maintenance.

*        10:00pm- All applications will be unavailable. 

*        10:30pm- EDS will begin patching, usually 2-4 hours. 

*        2:30am- Approximate time that systems will be re-booted and
application verification begins. 

   If you have any questions or concerns about this maintenance, please
let us know at egovhelp at das.state.or.us
<mailto:egovhelp at das.state.or.us> . 

 

   Thank you!
