SWAN Member Library Staff:
I have some good news this morning - our early start to the server upgrade and expedited
schedule led to a successful completion around 1 this morning. We're just finishing
up some testing and overnight maintenance reports now, but otherwise the upgraded Symphony
WorkFlows server is now ready for use.
A few things to note:
* Please login to WorkFlows and perform all functions as usual. No further downtime is
expected today. Additionally, we will not need to use Symphony Bridge or Offline today.
* Our report schedule will be especially congested today due to the overnight
maintenance starting late and several cancelled reports that we'll be making up from
last night. Please avoid running unessential reports until later in the afternoon.
* All regularly scheduled reports will run as expected today (albeit off schedule);
this includes autorenewals, all patron notices, and clean holds shelf.
* BLUECloud Analytics statistics may still take up to a day to catch up.
* All Enterprise, payment, and authentication services should be operating as expected
today.
* The new server uses the hostname
api.in.swanlibraires.net (same as our previous
server). As long as your WorkFlows client is pointing to this hostname, you'll login
to the server as usual. See the image below for further details.
* SIP2 connected hardware and software in the library (Self-Check, AMH, PC
Reservation, MyPC, etc) must also reference the hostname
api.in.swanlibraries.net instead
of the previous IP address. If this software and hardware is functioning correctly,
they're likely configured to use the hostname and no further action is needed.

We'll send additional SWANcoms and new posts if any substantial issues arise, so
please continue to watch throughout the day. Additionally, if you encounter any issues or
oddities, please send them to help@swanlibraries.net<mailto:help@swanlibraries.net>
so that we can investigate further.
Thank you for your patience throughout the upgrade process.
