ALERT: System Scheduled Down Time

Grants.gov is scheduled to deploy system Build 2008 – 03 this weekend. To deploy the build we need to take the Grants.gov system offline. The system will be unavailable Saturday, February 7, 2009 through Sunday, February 8, 2009. The system is scheduled to be brought back online at 11:59 PM EST February 8. If the deployment is ahead of schedule we will bring the system online sooner.

This build will increase the number of concurrent users up to 2,000 which will alleviate existing system slowness.

This build corrects the erroneous e-mail notifications issue. We need to conduct a test in production to formally validate this issue has been resolved.

Once this build is deployed the next priority is to correct the CCR data extract pull. We will provide you with more information as both these issues are resolved.

We appreciate your patience as we have worked towards deploying this build. If you have any questions please contact the Grants.gov PMO staff.
