[All_jlab_accounts] Network Status 7/29

[Roy Whitney]

All Staff and Users,

Most network services have been restored including most web servers, 
ssh, CVS, EVO, Skype, etc. Go to https://cc.jlab.org/networkstatus to 
see a complete list. You will need to click on the "login" link at the 
top right of the page, and then use your Jefferson Lab username/password 
to login.

The following services are still in the process of being fully restored:

Main web services

    Public Affairs is working with IT to restore access to information
    on the lab's website. The temporary public-facing website, which
    provides limited access to the lab, will be replaced with a newly
    designed and fully functional website. Testing has started on the
    new website and it could be installed in the next two-three weeks.

    The existing website is accessible from onsite, and on Monday, 8/1,
    the final security review of its content will be complete and a link
    to many pages will be placed on the temporary public-facing
    website.  At this time the links to the PAC, DIS, and Hall websites
    are available using the temporary public website. The experimental
    schedule can be reached at
    http://www.jlab.org/div_dept/physics_division/experiments/schedule.html
    and additional information/resources for users can be found on the
    temporary public website using the links available at the PAC38 web
    page: http://www.jlab.org/conferences/pac38.

public_html

    Currently staff and users are asked to use FTP (see next item) as a
    temporary workaround for public_html. By August 8, a new capability
    will be made available with the same functionality as public_html. 
    The final details of the new system are being worked with the User's
    IT representative from the UGBOD and representatives from
    Accelerator, Engineering, FEL and Physics divisions. 

FTP

    Offsite access to FTP is also now available for "getting" files. 
    "Putting" files requires use of SFTP.  Updated instructions are
    available at https://cc.jlab.org/filetransfers. BBFTP is expected to
    become available by August 3. 

Controls systems

    Information on remote access to controls systems will be made
    available as these systems are upgraded. The solutions will be put
    in place by the time of the end of the 6 month down or sooner as
    required. 

Sensitive information

    Network access for staff working with sensitive information has a
    number of new security controls that are specific to each work area
    and that are different than indicated above. Information on these
    areas is provided to the specific groups.
