Problem affecting some accounts [RESOLVED]

[01:00] Dear Members - there is an error on our servers that is resulting in about 8% of accounts having problems with access and mail delivery. We are working to resolve this problem and will have a new update within the hour. 

[01:40] We have identified the problem and are migrating some problem mail accounts which we believe will bring the service online. Please note that whilst we are doing this delivery to all accounts (not just the 8%) has been temporarily suspended. Those emails will be delivered once we have everyone back online. Next update around 2am. 

[02:00] Service should be restored now. We're monitoring and checking mail queues. Will do a final update in 15 minutes or so. 

[02:18] About half of all queued email has now been delivered - about 5000 messages left. This should be done in the next 20-30 minutes. Service appears stable. Our apologies for the outage. It has come to our attention that the first few accounts were affected rather earlier in the evening but these few did not trigger our server alerts. We will, as usual, investigate this failure case and ensure we plan for it in future.

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.
