Description of work:
We will be restarting a server in our data storage infrastructure.

Date / time:

Is this work likely to cause disruption?
Disruption is expected

What will you notice while this work is carried out?
When the restart is taking place, you will not be able to access your N Drive. If you’re using a desktop computer at this time, you will see the icon for it disappear and then reappear when the work is complete.

Most importantly: if you save files to the N Drive while the work is being completed, you may lose data. Please don’t try to save files to your N Drive during this work.

Why are we doing this work?
This change is a step towards resolving the issues with slow desktop performance in the last couple of days.
