Hardware: Servers and equipment that run the findIT CT catalog are located at Digital Back Office (DBO) in Wilton, CT. DBO’s data centers are directly connected to the Connecticut Education Network (CEN), so findIT CT is taking full advantage of CEN lines. 

Backups: Full backups of findIT CT are performed on the first Sunday of each month starting at 12:05 am and they have been completing within two hours. Incremental backups of findIT CT are performed every other day starting at 12:05 am and they have been completing within one hour. findIT CT users will experience no downtime during backups.  

System Maintenance: We have established a regular period of time in order to perform preventative maintenance on the findIT CT server and system. The maintenance window for findIT CT will be Sundays from 6 am to noon. We expect maintenance to occur about once or twice per month. 

findIT CT may be offline for all or part of the maintenance window. Users trying to access findIT during this time will receive a message saying the system is down for maintenance. On Fridays before maintenance is to be performed, we will put a banner at the top of the findIT CT search page alerting users to the maintenance window.
