IS&T Spotlight:
MIT's Web Site Experiencing Intermittent Outages
Early on Wednesday, February 8 Information Services and Technology
(IS&T) noticed that the MIT web site at http://web.mit.edu and http://www.mit.edu was unavailable. This was immediately reported
to the MIT community via "3Down," the reporting page
for all IT problems, which is on a separate server not affected
by the problem. Access to the web site was initially restored but
there have been subsequent intermittent outages that have been
difficult to restore. IS&T staff are working to better understand
the problem and to ensure a permanent resolution. Information will
be posted on 3Down at as it becomes available.
IS&T is also sending a broadcast email to several segments
of the community notifying them of the situation.
