Everyone:
We will be splitting up the patron purge to ensure the overnight processing reports run correctly. The purge, and your lists, will be complete by the end of the week.
Yesterday's reminder email contained a typo for the help desk email address; the correct address to open a ticket for a list of your purged patrons is help(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net>. Thank you to all who alerted me to the typo!

OR
* No checkouts or bills (including overdue fines)

SWAN Member Library Staff:
During a regular purge of finished system reports this morning, all SVA Failed Call Reports were mistakenly removed from the Symphony server. Future reports will continue to populate in Finished Reports, as expected, but archived reports from today and back have unfortunately been removed from the server.
Fortunately, I and several SWAN staff do have archived email copies of these reports that we'd be happy to send out to libraries that may need them. By the end of the day, I'll be sending last night's failed call reports to any libraries having failed SVA calls on Tuesday. These reports will be delivered to the library's associated aliased email address (aaa(a)notices.swanlibraries.net<mailto:aaa@notices.swanlibraries.net>). If you need any specific SVA failed call reports dating back beyond Tuesday, however, please send us a request at help(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net> and we'll send along the archived report asap.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

This morning's planned network outage concluded successfully and only lasted a brief two minutes.
All impacted services were restored quickly and are currently available for use.
Thanks for your patience.

This maintenance at 10pm tonight on our hosted Enterprise was requested by SirsiDynix from the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Team. They indicated it was urgent. It will bring all of SWAN's Enterprise down for a period, perhaps an hour at the most. We will send out updates via SWANcom.
https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2017-01-20/enterprise-maintenance-sc…
For reference, the other week I wrote about some ongoing Enterprise issues that SWAN is working with SirsiDynix to correct. I hope to provide you all an update next week on the subject of Enterprise.
