Campus Message Regarding Banner System

Dave Jones — October 08, 2016 - 3:51pm

Update 1 p.m. Oct. 8: IET is now estimating that it will bring Banner back online the morning of Monday (Oct. 10). This revised timeline comes after IET sent the results of overnight (Friday-Saturday) health checks to the vendor, and the vendor’s analysis revealed more errors. They’ve been repaired, but due to these errors, the vendor recommended additional health scans to ensure data integrity. Due to the large size of the data files, the scanning is expected to last until Sunday (Oct. 9).
