HAPPY NEW YEAR!

All of MSR servers, but three, is now unlocked and all permissions have been restored to the same level they were before the lockdown.

The three servers that is still in "read-only" mode are:

\\MSR

\\MSRAD

\\MSR-SRV1

The above servers, along with other Microsoft groups servers, are scheduled to be "unlocked" starting at 6pm today.  As a result, many \\research\root shares are still locked in "read-only" mode.  The "unlocking" is supposed to be completed by tomorrow morning and when you come in tomorrow, all the servers should be back to normal.

All the MSR web servers are running at normal levels and is fully accessible at the same level as before the "lock-down".
