The network and phone system on the 16th floor of 1 Dundas are offline after a power outage that ended at 5 AM. The problem appears to be with an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) that did not come back online after city power was restored.
Update (at noon): There have been delays getting access to the secured area in the building where the UPS is. We hope to have access soon.
Update (12:30): We have access but the UPS has lost it configuration information which has to be recovered and tested before it is brought back online.
Update (4:30 PM): Service was restored at 4:30 PM.

One of the various load balanced, front end LDAP servers used for service authentication stopped processing authentication requests. This would have been perceived by some users as an intermittent login failure to some applications. Some web based applications that require authentication may have been affected. Blackboard and other critical applications were not affected.
The proxy LDAP server was restarted around 3:50 PM today, and the problem was resolved.
We apologize for the service disruption.
