Scheduled

PRISM, the University of Pittsburgh’s enterprise financial system, will be unavailable from 11 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 18 until 7 a.m. on Sunday, Oct. 19 while a critical security patch is applied to the system.

Users should complete all transactions (including printing) and exit the system before 11 p.m. on Oct. 18, as incomplete transactions will be terminated without notice when the system goes offline.

The maintenance period was scheduled by Pitt Digital in consultation with Financial Operations and the Office of the Controller.

This maintenance is part of vendor-recommended best practices to ensure high levels of availability, secure work environments, and continued reliability and stability of critical systems. Pitt Digital will monitor progress, and in the unlikely event an issue or problem arises, the system will be reverted to its original configuration and an update will be posted to https://status.pitt.edu.

Please submit a ticket to the Technology Help Desk at https://digital.pitt.edu/helprequest or call +1-412-624-HELP (4357) if you experience any issues or have questions related to this maintenance. This effort is being led by Bill Rupp of Pitt Digital.
