October 2, 2023

With the beginning of the CU Data Center Move at noon on Friday, October 6, the Finance System (FIN), m-Fin reports in CU-Data, and other systemwide production applications will go offline. They will remain offline until 8:00 a.m. on Monday, October 9.

The data center is being moved to a new state-of-the-art data center in the Anschutz Health Sciences Building. The physical relocation of equipment requires the servers to be shut down and moved over a 68-hour window. During this window, the applications listed on the UIS Implementation Window website [2] will be unavailable.

We encourage you to plan ahead:

• Complete your work in FIN, CU-Data, HCM, and other affected systems, well before the hard cutoff at noon Friday, October 6.
• Avoid running reports or queries on the morning of October 6 as they may not complete in time.

For additional information regarding campus-specific applications that rely on CU System applications, see the following websites:

• CU Boulder [3]
• UCCS [4]
• CU Denver [5]
• CU Anschutz [6]

For implementation details, check out the UIS News [7] and Maintenance Matters [2] blogs.
