    UIS has announced scheduled maintenance on the DS-Print service on the morning of Monday 20th May. Printing to the DS-Print printers in the Department will not be possible between 7:30am and 8:30am, and multi-function devices will be unresponsive. The Department's locally managed printers will be unaffected.

    UIS are replacing a security certificate and installing an update for one of the technologies we use to provide the service.

    We will be updating the software on the core router/switch in the William Gates Building (gatwick) in order to attempt to mitigate the ongoing crashes (https://cl.instatus.com/clvva1e4b43187b8n2hqywstc0). This upgrade cannot be performed "live", so there will be approximately 20-30 minutes' outage of the William Gates Building office network, and of filer. Other servers in GN09 should be largely unaffected.

    The core switch/router in the William Gates Building (gatwick) appears to have crashed and rebooted; perhaps a reoccurrence of issues a month ago (https://cl.instatus.com/clur1lte237417blopt08gvelk). Networking should have returned (initially via one switch of the redundant pair that constitutes gatwick, whilst the other switch restarts).

    We will be upgrading RT during this time. Email to sys-admin, building-services and other email addresses that use ticket numbers will be delayed and not acted upon until the upgrade is complete.

    The upgrade may take all weekend as it involves a time-consuming database conversion.

gatwick (WGB core network) crashed

  • Update
    Update

    gatwick crashed and rebooted again at around 06:22, again triggered by a routine configuration update.

    We had, earlier in the night, attempted to install a software update but due to an unrelated issue, the routers refused to do an 'In Service Software Upgrade' - i.e. the upgrade would have caused more disruption - so we chose to roll back and delay this update until Cisco published their notes about this particular version.

    Update

    The routers have remained stable since the crash, but we're going to do some further testing out-of-hours, and install a software update. There may be some further disruption whilst that happens.

    Monitoring

    The core router and switch in the William Gates Building (gatwick) seemingly crashed and rebooted at around 14:27.

    This appears to have been due to a software bug triggered by a routine configuration change. Although gatwick is a virtual switch/router comprising two independent physical systems, it seems that the entire virtual switch/router (both physical systems) rebooted simultaneously.

    This type of device takes a long time to reboot; in this case there would have been a little over 12 minutes during which the William Gates Building office network was cut off from the University network and the internet (followed by a further few minutes of instability). This would also have affected connectivity to filer and a few other core services hosted in the WGB.

    Investigation is ongoing into the reason for this outage.
