UCS Upgrade Postponed

From: its-support@psu.edu
To: L-ITS-ALERTS@LISTS.PSU.EDU
Sent: Thursday, July 18, 2013 2:14:40 PM
Subject: Update: Software Upgrade to the University Collaboration Suite

The upgrade to the Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) version 8.0.4 is being postponed at this time. There is an issue with the disk subsystems that provides disk space for UCS. In the unlikely event that complications occur during the upgrade, there is concern about reverting back to the current version of UCS. Though the probability of any issues arising during the upgrade is low, the potential for loss is extremely high, making the risk unacceptable. When the disk subsystems issue has been solved, we will reschedule the upgrade. 

Service may be affected starting on July 27, 2013 at 4:30AM. The estimated time of resolution is July 27, 2013 at 7:30AM. 

For more information, please contact IT Service Desk (ITServiceDesk@psu.edu).
