The networking group needs to take down a piece of equipment for maintenance on Sunday morning during the downtime window at 7:00 AM.
This will temporarily disable access to the internet. Traffic between networks and servers on campus should not be impacted. Users from home may not be able to access Springboard during this time. The outage is expected to last about 15 minutes.
UA is a member of the Ohio Quality Matters Consortium ( http://www.oln.org/QM/quality_matters.php) and is hosting at no cost a one day professional development workshop for experienced online instructors on Applying the QM rubric. This invitation is extended to all consortium member institutions, however the first 15 seats are reserved for UA faculty. Please register for this limited seating event by visiting the QM pages on the Instructional Services website: ( http://www.uakron.edu/it/instructional_services/dds/qm/). A wait list will be maintained and five days before the workshop any open seats will be assigned to UA faculty.

The final step in the expansion to the file storage space – copying existing content to the new storage space – requires shutting down the Springboard system this evening at 8:00 PM. We estimate this maintenance will take 90 minutes. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and will work as quickly as possible to complete the migration. We will post a message on the Springboard! Blog when the transition is complete. Thank you for your patience as we work to ensure the reliability of Springboard.
