Down for now over two
weeks, the Groupwise
email used for OBU employee communication
remains inoperable.
Students and professors have
been unable to communicate via email since five of
the twelve hard disk drives
in the email array failed simultaneously.
Prior to the hardware
failure, the OBU Help
desk said in a Twitter update Oct.
27, “Groupwise
is sluggish and crashing
for some [people]…we rebooted the servers at 10:45
to attempt to restore functionality.
”
The help desk team sent
out an email Oct.
31, notifying students that OBU
employees would be unable to access their email
accounts, and that the
problem would last at least
one more day.
One day grew to a few
weeks, and the problem
was diagnosed beyond the
capabilities of the helpdesk
team.
