Outages & Service Degradations
Outage - Iowa Health Data Resource Data Enclave
Several IHDR shares are currently unavailable. ITS Research Services is investigating.
Outage - Large Scale Storage (LSS)
Due to a power outage this morning at Lindquist Center, some users may be having issues accessing or mounting their LSS Shares.
Shares that are impacted will start with "lc-rs-store*" or "lc-rs-storage*"
ITS Research Services is working to resolve this issue.
Service Degradation - Interactive Data Analytics Service (IDAS)
The shared class folders (classdata) are currently unavailable. ITS Research Services is investigating. This is related to the wider LSS outage, so we currently do not have an estimate time for resolution.
Planned Maintenance
Services scheduled for maintenance over the next 7 days.
Planned Maintenance - Multiple Services - AP Replacement
A critical hardware component is failing in a substantial number of the University’s wireless access points (APs). With the rate of failure increasing, Information Technology Services (ITS) is proactively replacing all affected units ahead of the fall semester.
This project will involve every campus building and is scheduled to take place from Monday, July 7 through Friday, August 20, with work occurring Monday through Saturday.
During the replacement process, users may experience a brief interruption in wireless service—typically lasting 10 to 15 minutes—in areas without overlapping access
Planned Maintenance - Multiple Services
Managed Windows Servers will be undergoing monthly patching during their normally scheduled maintenance window.
Please contact the ITS Help Desk if you are interested in the list of patches that will be applied or if you have any questions.
Planned Maintenance - Multiple Services
ITS will extend on-premises Active Directory group cleanup processes to include Microsoft Entra groups. This change will align with our existing Active Directory cleanup processes to ensure that we remove former student, faculty, and staff HawkIDs from cloud-only groups hosted in Entra that impact Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 Groups.
Planned Maintenance - MatLab
Update MATLAB license to support new MATLAB Release 2025a. ITS will be updating the following license server to support MATLAB Release 2025a: matlab-lm.iowa.uiowa.edu
