As part of a university-wide project, Information Technologies (IT) will upgrade the Banner system this spring. The MyUNM portal will also be upgraded as part of this project. MyUNM will be unavailable from Friday, Feb. 12 at 7 p.m. through Sunday, Feb. 14 at 12 p.m.
The Banner system upgrade will take place during Spring Break 2010, with Banner, LoboWeb, and other ERP-related components unavailable starting Friday, Mar. 12 at 5 p.m. Banner will be fully upgraded, online, and available for use by Thursday, Mar. 18 at 8 a.m. During the upgrade period, however, other major systems such as e-mail, calendaring, operational reporting, library services, WebCT, and the MyUNM portal will be available for use.
In addition to the upgrade outage, MyUNM will be placed into read-only mode from Wednesday, Feb. 10 from 6 a.m. through Friday, Feb. 12 at 7 p.m., in preparation for the upgrade. During this time, changes made to MyUNM Group Studio and Course Studio will not be saved. However, LoboWeb, WebCT, and e-mail will continue to function normally during this time.
Additional details and information will be forthcoming over the next several weeks. UNM departments wishing to have an informal presentation regarding the upgrade can contact Nancy Middlebrook, Banner 8 Functional Lead, at ndm@unm.edu.
