ITS will continue to monitor and tune the service as needed however it is expected that the new Directory Servers will greatly out perform the old version. The new version uses a much more robust, multithreaded replication model and tests have shown the new servers performed orders of magnitude better with proper tuning. This is expected to resolve the user and group account information lookup problem with the CIFS service.]]> Tue, 24 Nov 2009 17:34:39 EST Resolved: CLC Linux Lab and Cluster Authentication issues http://alerts.its.psu.edu/alert-1318

The tools for importing and exporting individual lesson content items between courses and groups will be turned off as well. These are only temporary changes to improve ANGEL performance during the period of intense usage associated with finals week.

The Copy Course tool allows instructors to copy one of their existing ANGEL courses into another course section. A master course is a special course set up as a template that multiple instructors can import into another course section. The ANGEL Archive tool is used to download a backup of a course as a ZIP file; this file can then be imported into another section using the import Content Package tool.

Instructors who need to use these tools to set up a course for the spring semester are encouraged to plan ahead and perform necessary course imports or exports prior to finals week. ]]> Tue, 24 Nov 2009 09:22:11 EST Breaker Testing in Telecommunications Building http://alerts.its.psu.edu/alert-1316 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 08:50:50 EST Thanksgiving Holiday Schedule Changes http://alerts.its.psu.edu/alert-1315 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 11:39:48 EST Resolved: TurnItIn Service Currently Unavailable http://alerts.its.psu.edu/alert-1310 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 11:28:40 EST Resolved: Email Outage. http://alerts.its.psu.edu/alert-1308 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 16:28:19 EST Resolved: We are currently experiencing a problem with our Workflow Service. http://alerts.its.psu.edu/alert-1311 our Workflow Service.
