During this time, you will be unable to access Symphony WorkFlows and MUST use offline to track any checkouts. Additionally, SIP2 functions will be inaccessible, and the Enterprise catalog will likely experience intermittent outages, login issues, and searching abnormalities. A banner has been posted to the catalog to inform patrons of the maintenance. We’ll send additional SWANcoms as we progress through our maintenance this weekend. Thank you for your patience.

This process requires SWAN to rebuild some very large software indexes which requires staff Symphony Workflows downtime, and will affect all MobileCirc, self-checks and AMH systems. This downtime will begin Saturday at 6pm and run through Monday night. SWAN will send a follow-up message when the database maintenance has been completed and staff can resume normal work practices. While these upgrades are being made, it is important that library staff use Symphony WorkFlows in Offline offline mode. 72 of our member libraries will be closed on Sunday, but for those libraries that are open during this upgrade, please be sure to note the following: * Symphony WorkFlows can be accessed only in Offline offline mode during the maintenance * MobileCirc can also be accessed only in Offline offline mode * Enterprise OPAC will remain accessible, although patrons may have limited access to materials and some searches may produce incomplete results * Materials can be checked out while Offline offline, but please hold all check-ins until Tuesday (Important: Backdate these delayed check-ins so as not to add fines to the patron records) Please email help@swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net> if you have any questions or concerns about the approaching system maintenance, or if you have any questions about running in Offline Mode with WorkFlows or MobileCirc. ________________________________ Source URL: https://support.swanlibraries.net/news/2016-05-18/symphony-server-database-m...
