During October, OIT, Facilities Management, and Design and Construction Services will complete the process of expanding the OIT Data Center facility in Engineering Gateway. When it is done, it will consolidate systems from the Law Building Data Center (LBDC), and save the campus energy and money. It will also allow the space formerly occupied by the LBDC to be used to meet the needs of the Law School.
This process will require two interruptions to services. The first, on October 6, will include:
- A&BS websites including EH&S, Police, Facilities Management and others
