[MacTUG] UPDATE: SharePoint issues - January 29

[Natasha Jennings]

Update: IST staff have determined there was a SharePoint Services failure last night that impacted the integrity of the SharePoint Databases.

How is the issue being resolved? The full SharePoint environment will be restored to the overnight backup. This will mean any content/changes added after 8:00 p.m. last night will not be in SharePoint after the restore is completed.

What is the impact? SharePoint will be unavailable until 10:30 a.m. while the full restore is completed.

Questions before or problems after this work? Please contact the IST Service Desk, helpdesk at uwaterloo.ca<mailto:helpdesk at uwaterloo.ca> or ext. 84357.
