Service Outage 6th March

This is a copy of the news as posted during the outage on our maintenance page. All websites were offline, webmail and client access to email was affected.

09:25 : We are currently investigating the outage.
09:40 : We are resolving an issue on one of the database servers. We hope to have the service running again shortly. Our apologies for the inconvenience.
10:15 : The primary database server is the root cause of the fault and is undergoing maintenance. Whilst the websites load, webmail login is currently unavailable so we've taken the decision to show this page instead to alert all members to the outage. We'll give regular updates here as the work progresses.
10:30 : The primary database server is still rebuilding, we hope to have an ETA for you in 5 minutes.
10:35 : The corruption of the database is contained to a single section (called a "table"). We're working on a fix that should see the server restored shortly that will effectively wipe the table temporarily whilst we restore its data in the background at a later date.
11:00 : Normal service expected shortly, we will update again in 5 minutes.
11:05 : Primary database back online, final checks now occurring. Website access (along with webmail and client access) will be restored shortly.

11:10 : Service was restored.

Re-connecting


Concordia Alumni Connect is a great place to reconnect with fellow alumni, gain industry knowledge and share career expertise and opportunities with each other and the next generation of Concordia Alumni.

Professional Network


Trying to get back in touch with old classmates? Or to find alumni in your area or field of work? Find the connections you need to further your career or business.

Concordia Map


This map helps you see where in the country, or indeed the world, other Concordia alumni are based.

This could be useful if you are visiting an area for a holiday, on business, or completely relocating to a new place and keen to connect with others who share your experiences of Concordia!

eMentoring Platform


The eMentoring platform is designed to help alumni and graduating students connect so that alumni can advise and give guidance to Concordia alumni embarking on their chosen careers. This could be anything from a few emails or checking a CV/application, to meeting face to face or even offering work experience.

The idea is that alumni can donate as much or as little of their time as they can spare to helping those in need of a helping hand at the beginning of their careers.
