We are currently experiencing a problem with the Self-Service server. We are migrating everything to a new server, and we should have Self-Service back up in the next few hours.
We are experiencing a significant network issue on campus. Technicians are on-site working to correct the problem. Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

On Monday Jan 15th, the MIS teams will be performing maintenance to install new security patches on the Ellucian servers. This maintenance will begin around 9AM and it should be completed by noon.
UPDATE: The fiber cable and connections have been repaired and the Alley Center is back on-line. Thank you for your cooperation and patience during this repair.
On Friday Nov 24, 2023 (Black Friday) Kingβs College IITS will be performing major system upgrades and security enhancements. This maintenance will take place between 8AM and 3PM and during that time, all internet access and networks systems will be offline.
The contractors working to repair the damaged fiber cable are having difficulties accessing the cable below the new water shut-off valve. This has delayed the repair procedure. I do not have a specific time when they will be cutting the fiber cable and taking the internet down.
The latest news from the job site is that the water company buried Service Electrics fiber so deep and under their new water line shut off, that it may not be until later this evening before Service Electric can start work on fixing the fiber.
The Alley Center is currently without any internet connectivity due to a fiber cable break in downtown Wilkes-Barre. We are working with Service Electric to repair the cable and restore internet service to the Alley Center as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.
All technology resources have been brought back online except the Ellucian-related servers. We are currently bringing this final group of servers up and all Ellucian services should be available in the next half hour or so.
Thank you for your patience.
5:25 AM UPDATE:
The facilities team is hoping to have the Air Conditioning parts by 7AM and installed by 8 AM. If our servers come up cleanly, we should have everything back on-line by 9 AM.
11 PM Update:
Facilities and Kings IITS have exhausted all options, so we anticipate no progress until tomorrow morning when we can get the necessary AC part. We will update everyone as we know more via @KingsIITS on Twitter or via email if we can keep that resource available.
We currently do not have a time-line for the replacement part or repair but I will update as more details are available overnight and into the morning.
The Technology Center in McGowan Hall is experiencing an air conditioning failure. To prevent overheating damage, all technology resources are being powered down until a replacement part can be obtained and installed. Please check @KingsIITS on Twitter for the latest details.
On Wednesday 11/23 at 1:30PM we will be performing maintenance on our network core. This maintenance will last approximately 1-2 hours and during the maintenance, all internet connectivity as well as wi-fi and phone will be offline.
