Internet interruption Wed., 11/27, 3:30 - 4:00 PM

There will be a brief interruption in Internet connectivity from the district network today (Wednesday, 11/27) between 3:30 - 4:00 PM so that we can perform some scheduled maintenance.

As with all things technical, the actual outage could be shorter or longer due to unforeseen circumstances. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Update: Google Drive outage- it's global

I just got off the phone with Google support (yes, you can call Google for support, if you are a Google Apps for Enterprise or Google Apps for Education customer), and they confirmed that Google Drive is unavailable for everyone- even the Google support employees.

Until it's fixed, we will compulsively check the Google Apps Status dashboard (where Google officially posts status updates, and the popular IsItDownRightNow.com site.

Google Drive Service Disruption

Google Drive is experiencing problems. Trying to get to Google Drive results in a "502 Error."

502. That’s an error.
The server encountered a temporary error and could not complete your request.
Please try again in 30 seconds. That’s all we know.

Google is aware of this problem (it's affecting more than just OregonSD) and is working on a solution. You can track Google's status on the issue at http://www.google.com/appsstatus#hl=en&v=issue&ts=1363669199000&iid=281772ec1e2cb9c718aa0a46e0b6eb94

Internet outage due to software upgrade lasted way longer than expected

A software upgrade to our network security and content management system was supposed to take only about 5-10 minutes, but actually caused a 25 minute interruption in Internet service from 4:00 - 4:25 PM today (3/5/2013). I apologize for the long interruption.

Google Docs list not showing up
