Friends of Yale ArchivesSpace:

With apologies for the short notice, this is a request to pause work in the Test environment on 4 October, tomorrow as of the sending of this message.

We are doing some security work on this environment with 2 primary consequences:

  1.  We need to make a backup of the database and index because
  2.  Part of the security work will be running a scan for vulnerabilities that will in all likelihood add data that makes the application fail.

The secondary consequences are

  1.  Data entered by staff tomorrow morning might not get backed up and therefore might not get restored.
  2.  As well, the application as a whole might become unavailable at some point during the application scan  if this is the case, it will remain unavailable until the database and index are restored.

I’ll keep you updated on this email list as and if things change and/or when things are available again



Best,

Trip
