Stay Informed about IT Service Outages

How to Stay Informed

To ensure you are on top of the latest communications related to outages and key service-impacting events, you can self-subscribe on Slack to the #uit-alerts and #itoc channels for the latest news and updates.

For information from Energy Operations on events, power and thermal energy alerts, curtailments and status updates, you can self-subscribe to the #energy_operations_information Slack channel. You can also view a list of IT services that may be impacted by power outages.

If email is your preferred communication channel, you can subscribe to service alerts. Emails are sent for new and resolved service outages associated with major incidents, as well as updates while the event is active. As a result, email activity can sometimes be heavy. You may also view a list of current service alerts through ServiceNow.
