Re: Scheduled LISTSERV Upgrade Service Interruption – July 31

Dear colleagues,  

Please be advised that the LISTSERV system will undergo a scheduled upgrade to migrate the LISTSERV server to a supported operating system, as the current operating system has reached its end of life and is no longer supported. This change is necessary to ensure the reliable and secure operation of the LISTSERV service. 

Service outage window: Wednesday, July 31, 2024, at 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. 

During this outage window, all LISTSERV services will be unavailable. Please note that users will not be able to send or receive messages via the LISTSERV service nor will they be able to access LISTSERV administrative functions.  

Once the upgrade is completed, there will be no change to the end user experience or LISTSERV administrative functions. 

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding and support as we work to improve your LISTSERV experience.  

Should you have any concerns or questions, please contact help.desk@utoronto.ca 

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.  

Kind regards,
Gary Raposo
