| 24 June 2026 13:33: [Update] Maintenance on a central network component on 26 June 2026, 17:00–22:00 | Jun 24, 2026 01:42 PM | #ufrstatus #wartung #stoerung As previously announced, an update to a central network component will take place this coming Friday. In this particular case, the existing redundancy cannot be utilised, and there will be an impact on the central email service for staff (CommuniGate/MailSPEC). We have been able to set up workarounds for the other services surrounding the system. The mail server will be shut down before the actual maintenance work begins. All incoming emails will be temporarily stored by the DFN and delivered as soon as our email system is available again. During the maintenance period, it will not be possible to retrieve or send emails via the CommuniGate mail server. We will provide further updates here before the work begins and once it has been completed. |
