Blackboard Status (Sat. Feb. 14, 2009 10:00am)
Update: The operating system could not be restored so we are switching to the standby database server. When this switch has been completed another message will be posted.
The Blackboard (Bb) system is down due to a problem with a patch to the database operating system that occurred during the regularly scheduled maintenance on Friday night (Feb 13, 2009). We do our best to test patches before they are applied by installing them on two different Bb environments (development and test). The application of the patch was successful in the Bb development and test environments but acted differently when applied to production.
The data is fine.
Sorry for any inconvenience,
The Blackboard Team
