CSL IMAP Sever Hardware Upgrade, Nov 18th, 10pm

The IMAP Server upgrade was completed at 00:30. No known problems were encounted

The CSL IMAP server will be undergoing a hardware upgrade Tuesday, 11/18 at 10pm. This will result in a service outage that is estimated to take 3 hours.

The server will be migrating off of the emergency hardware that was deployed in early October to replace the failed mail server. The new hardware is faster and more reliable than the current hardware, and has been tested over the past week without issues. Because of these improvements and its stability, we would like to deploy this hardware as soon as possible.

Should users encounter any email issues after the upgrade, please contact the lab at lab@cs.wisc.edu. If email is completely unavailable, phone the lab at 262-2389.
