Support #3267

Updated by Matt Gold over 10 years ago

Hi All, 

 When IT does its next planned maintenance on June 20, we will be able to direct the Commons to a custom maintenance URL, but we won't be able to do that for people with mapped domains. 

 We should write to all of those people with two points: 

 1. An alert about the upcoming maintenance and planned downtime; 

 2. A note that if they want visitors to be redirected to the custom maintenance page, they should follow these directions: 

 -- change their DNS records to substitute a CNAME recordècommons.gc.cuny.edu for the A record è 146.96.128.200. This could be a permanent, one-time change. 


 I've just shared the spreadsheet with you. Scott, if you could draft an email with Boone's advice on #2 above, I will send it out from the Commons address. Let's see if we can get this done by next Tuesday the 17th. Thank you. 

 



 I was wondering whether you could alert people who are running domain-mapped blogs on the Commons about our coming planned downtime. We should probably keep a contact list of people running domain mapped blogs on the Commons anyway.  

 Boone, can you please get Scott a list of domain mapped blogs?
