GONNA BE ANOTHER BANNER
YEAR FOR USERS
To All Banner Users--Important Banner Release 5.X Update: The Banner
system will be taken "off line" at 5 p.m. on Feb. 15; the
upgrade process will begin at that time; the Banner system will return
to on-line production on Feb. 20 at 8 a.m. All University offices that
use Banner will need to develop appropriate plans for "off-line"
operation on Feb. 18-19. Offices are also encouraged to develop contingency
plans to address the unforeseen possibility of being "off line"
for a couple of additional days (Feb 20 - 22). It is highly unlikely
that the additional time will be needed, however, because there is no
way to "pre-test" a "one time" event such as the
Banner upgrade/go-live, it is prudent to anticipate and prepare for
the unexpected.
The configuration of Banner Rel. 3.X and production
data will be "frozen" at 5 p.m. Feb. 15th-- in a worst-case
scenario it will be possible to "back-out" and bring the Rel.
3.X machine back online into production--any decision to abort the Rel.
3.X to 5.X conversion would be achieved through consultation with all
three campuses. In preparation for this upgrade, all Banner users should
be actively working with Rel. 5.X screen and capabilities at their local
workstations; users should print, and become familiar with, the appropriate
sections of the Rel. 5.X documentation (located on the Banner server
at \\AD02\adadmban\bdoc5x).
Team leaders for each of the functional teams
(on each campus) will provide further communication on Banner activities
- they will also be checking with Banner users for their areas relative
to training and testing. Problems encountered by users during testing
must be documented (provide details such as: form names, what was attempted;
error messages, etc.). This information should be sent to both the team
leader for the respective system and to csd.systems@enmu.edu. Unless
users document problems and notify the team leader and the Banner systems
support group, problems will not be solved. Additional information about
the Banner upgrade will be provided in the coming weeks.
THANK YOU TO FUTURE
SMALL SCREEN STARS
