Many services will be unavailable Saturday and Sunday, May 12-13
Beginning Saturday, May 12 at 9 p.m. and continuing through Sunday, May 13 at 11 a.m., Information Technology Services (ITS) will power down all services, including the UNM network, for an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) installation. UNMH will not be affected and all critical clinical services will be available. Main, North, South and all branch campuses will not have any internet services. During this time ITS will also perform other electrical upgrades, including relocating a transformer.
ITS coordinated the power upgrades with many entities on campus and found that this is the best possible window impacting the least amount of processes and/or services. There will be a 14-hour down time to connect the new UPS power feed, relocate the transformer and do all the electrical work associated with the upgrade.
ITS will safely power down all services, perform the upgrades and maintenance, power up, restore the network, and then safely bring services back up by 11 a.m. Sunday.
Specific details of the Power Upgrade can be found at the ITS Web site: Power Upgrade.
