Starting at approximately 12:30PM until 3:00pm, contractors made an error and cut the fiber optic network uplinks to ALS. This took down the network in ALS and LPSC. It also took down all services hosted in our datacenter. This includes: science email, websites, network storage (T: and Z), the HPC cluster, and many others. CoSINe is going to work closely with Information Services to ensure such careless action is not taken by a contractor again.

Details are posted in another annoucement.
