Blackboard Down for Maintenance 10 pm 11/21 to 1 am 11/22
Per the announced Fall 2014 maintenance schedule, the UMBC Blackboard server will be offline from 10 pm Friday 11/21 to 1 am Saturday 11/22.
This downtime is during the regularly scheduled maintenance window and is necessary to perform system-wide upgrades, including patches and fixes that need to be applied. DoIT staff will make every effort to keep to this three-hour window to ensure continuity of services; on a rare occasion, however, quality assurance checks may temporarily delay access.
- Instructors: Please refrain from assigning any work that is due on Blackboard during this maintenance time. When the system is offline, students cannot submit their work.
- Students: Please be sure to save or submit any work before this time. Any unsaved or unsubmitted work will immediately be lost when the system shuts down.
After Blackboard is back online, please clear your Internet browser cache and cookies before logging in using these step-by-step instructions.
We appreciate your patience as we strive to maintain our systems, especially during our transition to managed hosting.
