On Sunday morning, February 24th, the Mainframe Systems Group will be upgrading our 7 ½ year old mainframe CPU.
On Sunday, February 24th, from 1 a.m. to 10 a.m., the Mainframe Systems Group will be upgrading our 7 ½-year-old mainframe CPU.
This form of upgrade requires the mainframe to be completely down to allow IBM to replace key components with upgraded equipment.
During this time there will be a complete outage — no mainframe services, DB2, CICSWBP, or TSO will be available.
After the upgrade, a test/validation window will be available from 10:00 a.m. until 11:00 a.m.
For more details or help, please contact the IT Support Center at (310) 825-8000 or help@it.ucla.edu.
