Planned Upgrade of Sakai Support Webforms, Apr. 26


*** UPDATE *** Apr. 26, 6:44AM - The Sakai Support webforms are upgraded and back online.

*** UPDATE *** Apr. 26, 6:00AM - The Sakai Support webforms are currently offline for the planned upgrade. The Sakai Support team is working to restore this service by 7:00AM (if not before).

WHAT: Planned Upgrade of Sakai Support Webforms


WHEN: 04/26/13   Duration: 6:00AM - 7:00AM


Description: On Friday morning, April 26, all webforms associated with the Sakai Support site (e.g., Request Course, Request Project Site, Request Guest Users, etc.) will be unavailable for a software upgrade. Most importantly, the Request Course webform will be upgraded for instructors to be able to create Sakai courses that incorporate student enrollments from more than one course reference number (CRN). Such Sakai courses are useful when an instructor teaches more than one section of a particular course during an academic term. A document describing how instructors can use one Sakai course to effectively manage more than one CRN is available here.


As a further result of this upgrade, the webforms associated with the Sakai Support site will assume the same look-and-feel as the rest of the PLU website.


Service(s) Impacted: Sakai

Workarounds:  During this downtime requests for help and support pertaining to Sakai can still be emailed to sakai@plu.edu.  

Estimated Time to Resolution or Next Update: Fri., Apr. 26, 7:00AM
