VUIT Scheduled Maintenance to Install Windows OS Patches

Posted by Edmwnd Rowlands on Thursday, March 22, 2018 in Outage.

From 12 a.m. to 6 a.m. on Sunday, March 25, Vanderbilt IT will install Microsoft Windows operating system patches on several general servers. This scheduled maintenance will require a reboot of the servers after patches are applied. The maintenance will ensure the continued security of Windows operating systems on the servers. Redundant systems are patched in offsets to minimize the risk of loss of service and carried out during off-peak hours to reduce impact.
