ICS Maintenance June 18, 2006
In order to accomodate a 12 hour facilities shutdown on June 18, 2006, ICS Computing Support will begin shutting down non-critical ICS infrastructure in the ICS Datacenter at 5pm on June 17, 2016.
Facilities's Message
Facilities High Voltage Team has been performing preventative maintenance on many of the campus building transformers, switchgear, and breakers. While performing maintenance we have been able to identify and repair many equipment deficiencies and reduce the possibility of electrical failures and outages.
Facilities High Voltage Team has scheduled preventative maintenance on Computer Science T-18 & T-19 transformers and switchgear for Saturday, June 18th, 2016, from 5:00am-5:00pm
In order to perform this maintenance it will require a 12-hour electrical shutdown to the entire building. The only power will be emergency power.
