Scheduled Blackboard Outage on January 20th, 12:01am – 04:00pm

Important notice from Blackboard system admin:

“Time: 12:01am – 04:00pm EDT
Services: Clients with Server(s) at our Northern Virginia Datacenter 2.

This is a reminder that on Saturday, January 20, 2018, Blackboard will be performing scheduled infrastructure maintenance to replace our primary and secondary core switches which will reach end-of-life in March 2018. While we anticipate no interruption in service as a result of the work, we cannot entirely rule out periods of intermittent connectivity as network traffic adjusts, or a quick restart of services on a few client systems if warranted. We will make all efforts to keep any service disruption within the window to a minimum.”
