Services System and UPI Upgrade work – 5th November

By Tim J Purkiss, on 25 October 2012

On 5th November 2012, both the core UPI system and the Services System will be undergoing upgrade work.

This work will mean that:

The Services System will be unavailable in the evening of 5th November
from 5:30pm to c8:00pm

Both UPI and the Services System, including all interfaces, should be considered “at risk”
from 5:00pm on 5/11/12 to noon on 6/11/12.

In summary, the UPI release:

  • adds some additional student data to UPI core views;
  • tidies up, rationalises and brings up to coding standards many core UPI views and objects;
  • introduces ground work so UPI will be able better to provide the most up-to-date Person data record from the most suitable primary system;
  • fixes some inconsistencies in name formatting between the primary systems;
  • improves UPI Search Matching by taking into account Known As names;
  • includes a new interface for the CMIS timetabling system;
  • deploys changes required for the Identity & Access Management Project;
  • fixes other minor bugs and removes obsolete objects.

The Services System release:

  • updates the system in line with changes to UPI;
  • deploys forms converted to the latest Oracle Forms server technology;
  • allows user access to be disabled from within the application;
  • fixes minor bugs.
