Moodle will be unavailable on two occasions in January 2017 [Updated Jan 17]


December 20th, 2016

Moodle will be unavailable on two separate occasions during January 2017 – Thursday 5 January and Friday 27 January until Sunday 29 January inclusive.

[Update, Jan 2017: It has now been confirmed that both Moodle and Rogo will be down from Friday 27 January until Sunday 29 January. During this period, a version of Moodle for student revision purposes only will be available. Students will be able to look at documents and resources, but staff or students will not be able to make changes to Moodle during this period. However, the version of Moodle for revision purposes only will be available from 7pm on the 27 January, which means there will be no Moodle service at all from 6pm to 7pm on that day. As an extra precaution, we would recommend that you download any resources that you may need during this period prior to 6pm on Friday 27 January.]

The University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus will be adopting additional Campus Solutions functionalities throughout January. Campus Solutions is the new software being implemented as part of Project Transform.

In order to implement these functionalities, both Moodle and Rogo will need to come offline to allow for data migration. Since we operate one environment of these systems across all three campuses, this means that the systems will also be unavailable to staff and students in the UK and China during this period.

The dates are as follows:

  • Thursday 5 January, 5.30-7.00pm UK time, Moodle will be unavailable
  • Friday 27 January, 6pm until Sunday 29 January, 8pm UK time, Moodle and Rogo will be unavailable.

The latter of these outages will be confirmed in January.

Staff who have coursework deadlines that fall within this period have been contacted separately. This message has also been communicated via student channels, but please pass on the message at any appropriate opportunity.
