The essential summer works programme includes testing, upgrades, and the modernisation of many of Trinity’s IT infrastructure services.

It is not anticipated that any planned loss of service or downtime will be required but for the duration of the works some services will be running, for a short period, “at risk”.  An “at risk” period is when services have a higher risk of failing and being temporarily unavailable.   

Further information, including the actual dates and times, of this upcoming work will be added below, and this information will continue to be updated over the summer.

Types of works

Annual High Availability Testing

We will, once gain, complete high availability testing across our infrastructure.  These tests give us confidence that, in the event of an unplanned server or data centre failure, our services will continue uninterrupted and remain available to you. 

Upgrades

We will enhance and upgrade much of the central infrastructure such as our servers' operating systems, VPN, Load-Balancers, IPAM, MIM Identity Management system, VMware, email Exchange servers, Wireless and Data Centre systems. 

 

Planned works

  • High availability testing and upgrade of Internal Load balancer - 24th June from 7am to 9am
