-===== 2021-07-27unscheduled downtime of BigBlueButton, a b-it fileserver and some VMs =====+===== 2023-12-12/13TVS maintenance window =====
  
-** Update: All central services are by now fully available again. **+<html><div class="tpl_update">The tutorial assignment system is operational again.</div> 
 +</html>
  
-Due to problems with the storage backend of an older virtualization cluster, there are currently massive problems when using some VMs, in particular: +This semester's data will be available until end of semester.
- +
-  *  BigBlueButton Load Balancer (bbb.informatik.uni-bonn.de) +
-  *  a central file server of the B-IT +
- +
-as well as the machines +
- +
-  * vm-wuebbel-01 +
-  * sentry +
-  * mail-info4 +
-  * bbb4mm +
-  * leonov +
-  * inf1-srv-01 +
-  * login.bit.uni-bonn.de +
- +
-The affected systems are immediately shut down completely in order to accelerate the repair of the affected storage backend. After repairs have been completed, the systems will be moved to a newer cluster in the short to medium term. +
- +
-The central BigBlueButton IT service is also affected, the individual BBB servers are available (ongoing conferences are not affected), but new rooms cannot be opened or existing ones can be entered. I hope to be able to use the load balancer again tomorrow at the latest. +
- +
-I apologize for the inconvenience, we are working on eliminating the problem.+
  
 +<del>TVS will not be available on 12th and possibly 13rd of December //from 10am to 12pm,// while doing a software update.
 +If you still need your data, please read them out before. This will also be possible afterwards, of course, </del>\\

 +===== 2023-08-07: Change  of WiFi Certificate of C.S.dept. and B-IT =====
  
-===== 2021-06-07 External Connectivity Issues =====+Today we did renew the certificate for our wifi infrastructure. At the same time we switched over to the new certification authority hosted by the DFN (GEANT, just like the HRZ did some days before, you may remember the mail about eduroam).
  
-Last night and today in the morning we had some connectivity issues due to a problem with our uplink to the Hochschulrechenzentrum (HRZ). The HRZ has issued a maintenance report regarding this incident:+This means that all wifi configurations of your devices that are used to 
 +connect to the computer science dept. or the b-it (eduroam-cs and 
 +802.1Xhave to be reconfigured to check for the new certificate/and 
 +or CA.
  
-https://www.hrz.uni-bonn.de/de/betriebsmeldungen/1623044209514 +You will find the current [[en:wifistd|fingerprints and certificate downloads]] at the usual place.
- +
-The problem has been solved by now. +
----- +
-===== 2021-05-31 Loss of All Network Connectivity. ===== +
- +
-There has been a complete breakdown of all network connections +
-within computer science at about ~17:00 due to an error in the +
-Stack communication of our central router. Individual stack participants +
-got into repetitive reboot loops. We could find the source of the problem  +
-and eliminate it. All services should be available again.  +
- +
----- +
-===== 2021-05-14 Downtime Staffhomes I/II/IV/V/theory/zentral ended. ===== +

- +
-The new fingerprints are available at the usual URL: +

-The old servers will be available for you until friday (2021-03-05, +
