Every half year we do clusternode maintenance, with at least a package ugprade and a reboot, but sometimes other maintenance can happen, such as changes in filesystems or network configurations. The upcoming date for this maintenance is February 6th, 2026 (Friday)
The network switches in the buildings/floors/locations mentioned above will be replaced. This means that both wired en wireless networks at these locations will be interrupted and network traffic will not be possible. This includes the network for access control, climate control etc.
The server nachtwacht reports having a hard drive that will soon fail. We will replace the disk as soon as possible.
The server that acts within FNWI as first DNS resolver crashed, probably because of a disk becoming defective. This made the network slow or even virtually unusable for a lot of computers in FNWI. Only after a reboot of the server, the problem1 was solved. Monday morning, at the weekly reboot of this server, it would only boot after manually acknowledging the defective disk (problem2), When other servers rebooted at 06:30, a lot of them had problems due to the missing DNS resolver. Further measures to reduce the inconvenience of such a crash have been taken. The move to new DNS servers is in preparation. ...

Because of a software upgrade of the network switches in the buildings/floors/locations mentioned above, these network switches will be rebooted at 06:00h (AM) exactly. This means that both wired en wireless networks at these locations will be interrupted for 10 to 15 minutes and network traffic will not be possible. This includes the network for access control, climate control etc.
After the network maintenance of 20141111 a single user reported later a problem with the wired network. These problems intensified and grew faculty wide on 20141119 at 13:34 hours. The network switches in the Faculty of Science received so many topology changes of the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) that network traffic often stuttered. By curbing the STP traffic on 20141120 at 15:32 the stuttering disappeared. We still search for the exact cause, probably it is a housing move. ...
