ResNet database has been switched off....   Permanent Link to ResNet database has been switched off....

(previous) :: (next)

The ResNet database has been switched off. This is so that the machine that it runs on can be attached to a new super quick network filesystem. Sorry we didn't tell you earlier.

Luckily, this work will not affect most ResNet connections:

  • If you are a current ResNet user, the Manage my ResNet utility and the automatic status monitoring on our homepage will be unavailable for most of the day. Otherwise, your internet connection should be unaffected.
  • We will not be able to move your connection if you are moving room/hall until the database is back on.
  • If you are a new ResNet user and need to pay us, we will be able to take your money, but we will not be able to switch on your account until after the database has been reactivated. Usually this would be instant.

Update: this was restored by about 11.45am this morning.
