Scheduled Maintnance

by John Sushil Packiaraj 14491 -

Dear All,

We have scheduled maintenance between 18th October 2023 [08:00 AM to 08:00 PM].  The hardware on which Moodle is currently operating requires a scheduled update.  With this new infrastructure, we are undertaking such an operation for the first time and are projecting a longer downtime.  However, we will keep the downtime to a minimum.  We request that no important activities are scheduled during this period.  You will be able to access the infrastructure when there is no activity happening, however, access is not guaranteed.

We also are using this window to move our infrastructure to Moodle 4.3.  

We do not have an alternate time and are forced to utilise the selected window to apply these mandatory patches. This being the CAT - 02 period, we are certain that disruption will be to a minimum. The infrastructure will be made available immediately on the 'go-ahead' from the vendor for our use.

Thank you so much for understanding.

With Regards,
JSP


Maintenance successfully completed

Dear all,

We have successfully migrated our Moodle infrastructure to 4.2 version along with the update to the underlying server software. 

With Moodle 4.2, some nice features are also available for the teachers.  You will see a 'Bulk Edit' button in the edit mode. When you click the same, you will be able to select items that you would like to modify.  Check any one of the boxes and the 'Select All' button will get enabled.  Now you can 'Hide / Show',  'Duplicate', multiple activities or resources. Please ensure that you 'Delete' with care.  YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RESTORE DELETED ACTIVITIES or RESOURCES.

You will now be able to bulk hide activities or resources that you would have shared with your students with far fewer clicks.

Our hearty thanks to our CTS team for helping us with the upgrade process.

We thank you for your patience.  We have not been able to find another suitable time for this update, and we are sure that you will very much be enjoying a better experience - Thanks to this update.

With Regards,

The Moodle Support Team
PS: Please send support requests for Moodle to support.moovit@vit.ac.in
