2025/07/08 - Scheduled maintenance, 8 July
 

During the Tuesday, 8 July maintenance window, maintenance work will affect certain services, starting at 5:30 PM and being completed before midnight. The following work is planned:

  • Access switches: software will be updated on the network switches in the buildings listed below. All network services (including Wi-Fi and IP telephones) will be disrupted in those buildings for around 30 minutes.

    • Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences

  • Storage systems: software on certain of the storage switches will be updated.  The remainder will be updated on a later date. No noticeable outage is expected, though an unexpected failure during the upgrade would cause an outage affecting almost all services.

This work is being conducted during a minor maintenance period. Should there be a compelling reason why this work should not go ahead as planned, please contact support@ru.ac.za before 3:00 PM on Tuesday.
