Campus datacenter power shutdown January 2-3, DECF servers offline
Power to the campus datacenter will be shut down January 2-3 for upgrades. During the power shutdown, DECF servers must be powered down, which means that websites hosted at the DECF will not be accessible.
This applies to websites that are edited through kepler.berkeley.edu. WordPress websites hosted at WP Engine will not be affected. For more information about the campus datacenter power shutdown, see: https://technology.
