Computer Care Over Winter Break, 25-Dec-2023 through 01-Jan-2024

Similar to recent years, please leave your computer powered on over the winter break (although you may turn off only your computer's display). Leaving your computer powered on allows software patches and security updates to be installed automatically.

If you have any questions about these recommendations, please feel free to submit a ServiceRequest.

General network and server maintenance will occur every Tuesday from 12:00 noon to 2:00 PM. The CLASSE-IT group will always announce any expected disruptions in our NewsLetter and via CLASSE-IT-NEWS-L, but with the size and complexity of our network there is always the potential for something to go wrong. We will do our best to contain all network maintenance and planned outages to Tuesdays from 12:00 noon to 2:00 PM.

Unless other arrangements have been made, CLASSE-managed Windows systems may be updated and rebooted on Tuesday morning at 2:00 AM, so please avoid critical or lengthy operations at that time. For more details, please see SystemExpectations.
