At 10:51AM this morning, our Database Administrator changed the Oracle password for the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) database account to run some tests. He thought he was logged into the Oracle Test server, but he was actually logged into the Production Oracle server. This caused Voyager client errors, forced UIUC circulation clients into "offline circ" mode, displayed "The catalog is not available" message in UIUC's WebVoyage instance, and blocked UIUC's VuFind access.

At 9:30AM yesterday morning (Sunday, April 13th) we made a change to Production Oracle to enhance our database security. This change caused problems in VuFind, so it was backed out by 10AM Sunday morning. The change did not cause any issues in our Test server environment. We have identified what is different between Production and Test and are working to make sure they are identical for future testing.

The Heartbleed bug in OpenSSL has been all over the news this week. It is a serious enough problem that it even has its own website (www.heartbleed.com). We scanned our systems and we did not find this problem on any of them, so there is no need to worry about changing passwords on CARLI systems at this time.

The weather is decidedly springlike outside, and though I've learned more than once not to declare this winter over until some time in mid-July, I've decided to tempt the fates. I was rather enjoying the winter, frigid cold and all, but the beautifully hand-colored View of Sacred Bridge at Nikko has given me a bad case of spring fever. The rushing water of the Daiya River and green of the foliage make me wish I were somewhere other than behind a desk, though it's the vibrant red hue of the bridge that initially caught my eye, striking even in thumbnail form.

The UIUC Domain Name Service (DNS) went offline at approximately 3:06PM today and campus networking staff report that it was brought back online at 3:42PM. The DNS service translates human-friendly names (i.e. voyager.carli.illinois.edu) into computer-friendly addresses (i.e. 192.17.55.247).
Without this service, some CARLI servers are unable to lookup addresses so that they can talk to other CARLI servers. The campus Voice-over-IP phone service also was impacted by this outage which resulted in busy signals when calling our office.
