Summer service outages

Due to maintenance during summer some LabraNet student services may be unavailable from time to time. We try to minimize the impact on usage and schedule the maintenance on quiet hours.

The following services will be unavailable for extended period of times on Thursday 8.7.2021, due to continued data migrations:

• student.labranet.jamk.fi
• mariadb.labranet.jamk.fi
• postgres.labranet.jamk.fi
• LabraNet VPN

We expect the services to be functional again on Friday 9.7.2021 but in case of problems, please create a ticket on our helpdesk.

Backups

The following LabraNet user assets are backed up periodically:

– LabraNet User home directories and profiles
– Ghost\Staff
– Ghost\Virtuaalikoneet
– /home folders at student.labranet.jamk.fi
– Project Servers

Users should also backup their important data to secure locations by themselves. We are NOT responsible for any data loss, failed courses and/or loss of sanity or financial assets due to lost data.

If however data loss occurs on systems mentioned above, please submit a ticket via helpdesk and request data restore.

The following assets are NOT backed up in any way:

– Ghost\TEMP
– MySQL databases at mysql.labranet.jamk.fi
– Virtual Machines for courses
– D-drives on classroom workstations

The users must manage backups for these resources by themselves.
