Status update for Enterprise and Workflows issues
by Tara Wood 04 Jan '19

04 Jan '19

Good afternoon member libraries, We are still working to resolve the issues with Enterprise and increases in server load averages. At the moment we have left the holdings displays disabled, and we plan to leave them disabled through the weekend. With the holdings displays disabled, Enterprise and Workflows are stable and patrons are able to log into their accounts and use hold functions. Our priority is to make sure patrons can access the most important services while we troubleshoot these issues and keep Workflows up and running for staff. We are waiting for an update from SirsiDynix just a little later today, but we do not have an ETA as to when these issues will be resolved. Thank you for your patience and we will continue to update this issue on the support site today and over the weekend if there are any changes in status. https://support.swanlibraries.net/node/66547

*Update* Intermittent Enterprise Outages and WorkFlows Slowdowns
by Steven Schlewitt 02 Jan '19

02 Jan '19

SWAN Member Library Staff: A quick update to our intermittent Enterprise outages and Symphony/WorkFlows slowdown issues. We're continuing to see influxes of Web Services calls to the Symphony server, which have resulted in intermittent Enterprise outages and occasional performance spikes on the Symphony/WorkFlows server. These issues first arose December 26th and 27th, and had subsided until this afternoon. To troubleshoot further, we temporarily disabled Web Services access on Enterprise for several hours today, which impacted My Account logins, Item Availability, and Holds placement. Those functions have since been restored and are expected to remain online throughout the evening. Fortunately, this troubleshooting has gotten us much closer to pinpointing the source of the issue and we will continue to investigate and monitor the situation throughout the week. This ongoing investigation and intermittent outages have been noted to patrons as a banner on all Enterprise profiles. Additionally, you can track new updates to the case via the support site posting<https://support.swanlibraries.net/node/66547>. In the meantime, we expect that significant Symphony/WorkFlows slowdowns should largely have subsided, so the majority of the continued impact will be on Enterprise. We thank you for your continued patience as we work to resolve this issue. -- SWAN Library Services 800 Quail Ridge Drive - Westmont, IL 60559 Email: help(a)swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net> Phone: 844-SWANLIB (844-792-6542) https://support.swanlibraries.net/
