On Sunday, November 15, 2009, from 5:00 until 11:00 a.m., Information Technology Services (ITS) will upgrade the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server, which supports Penn State Directory Services, to Tivoli Directory Server version 6.2. The upgrade is being performed to enhance the performance and stability of the directory server. During this timeframe, several of the directory server's update-oriented services will be disabled; however, users will still be able to perform directory lookups via http://www.psu.edu/directory/. In addition, other directory-dependent services such as e-mail services, Penn State Access Account Storage Space (PASS), calendaring, and a variety of University-wide Web services will not be affected by this outage.
The directory-related services that will be disabled during the upgrade timeframe include:
*Directory entry and e-mail forwarding updates via the ITS Secure Server, https://www.work.psu.edu/
*Group creation via the User Managed Groups (UMGs) interface, https://umg.its.psu.edu/
*The Automatic E-mail Reply Message Utility (the "vacation" service) via https://www.work.psu.edu/vacation/
*The Student Organizations Server Administrative interface, https://admin.clubs.psu.edu/
Information and requests for assistance may be directed to ITS Help Desk staff at helpdesk@psu.edu.
For more information, please contact Karen M. Hackett (kmh@psu.edu).
