Hello,
Starting on December 20, 2018 around 8:00PM, main authentication servers for ACM website are going down for maintenance. This service is expected to be down for the majority of the Winter Break as SysAdmins upgrade and update servers/services.
Affected services:
Further updates will be posted here as more services stabilize.
If you have any questions, please let an ACM/LUG SysAdmin know by emailing sig-sysadmin [at] acm.cs.uic.edu or by messaging the #sig-sysadmin channel on Slack.

ACM Servers and Network will be going down for maintenance on November 3, 2018 and November 4, 2018. Services are expected to return no later than November 5, 2018 @ 6:00am CDT. Sysadmins will be performing critical maintenance.
Please contact ACM/LUG Systems Administrator Bharat Middha with any questions or concerns.
Hello,
On September 27, 2018 around 3:00PM, an unforeseen change caused the main acm.cs.uic.edu website to become inaccessible/slow.
Affected services:
At this time, acm.cs.uic.edu and related services should be back up. A recent change by ACCC caused routing to be treated differently, causing some traffic to be routed out of incorrect interfaces. These issues has since been resolved.
If you have any questions, please let an ACM/LUG SysAdmin know by emailing sig-sysadmin [at] acm.cs.uic.edu or by messaging the #sig-sysadmin channel on Slack.
Sorry for the inconvenience,

Hello,
On July 14, 2018 around 1:00PM, SysAdmins noticed authentication and acm.cs.uic.edu became inaccessible. From initial investigation, the HVAC system was suffering an unexpected water shutoff. The main AC unit in the server room is not functioning, allowing temperatures to rise in excess of 116°F.
SysAdmins have contacted the appropriate parties to help resolve this issue. We expect this issue to be resolved by Monday, July 16, 2018. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
Due to high temperatures, ACM/LUG services will be running in limited capacity. The majority of servers will be powered down for the weekend to mitigate any catastrophic hardware failures.
Currently affected services:
If you have any questions, please let an ACM/LUG SysAdmin know by emailing sig-sysadmin [at] acm.cs.uic.edu or by messaging the #sig-sysadmin channel on Slack.

Hello,
On June 5, 2018 around 1:30PM, senior SysAdmins noticed an issue with DNS records pertaining to acm.cs.uic.edu. From initial investigation, the DNS record is now being overridden by UIC DNS records. At this time, acm.cs.uic.edu is not currently accessible due to an incorrect DNS configuration. The cause for this change is still unknown.
SysAdmins have contacted the appropriate parties to help resolve this issue, however we do not currently have an ETA of when this issue will be fixed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
Services requiring the acm.cs.uic.edu domain will unfortunately be inaccessible at this time.
Currently affected services:
As a temporary solution, you may use lug.cs.uic.edu to resolve to the same server. (e.g.: If you need to SSH into our servers, do so with lug.cs.uic.edu)
If you have any questions, please let an ACM/LUG SysAdmin know by emailing sig-sysadmin [at] acm.cs.uic.edu or by messaging the #sig-sysadmin channel on Slack.
