Problem/Question
When does ITS perform maintenance?
Overview
Regular maintenance of our systems ensures we are providing a stable and secure environment for University business.
Additional maintenance windows may be needed, campus notifications will be posted to the ITS Status page and emailed to the appropriate groups.
Emergency maintenance, if necessary, will be announced on the ITS Status page and communicated to our Service Status email group, umd-its-frontline-notify@umich.edu.

Note: These maintenance periods are not used every time, but rather, it is the time when we will perform maintenance, if necessary.
