Update

As the Data Portal is still ok to use, we are now marking it at risk (as we may need in the near future to restart the service when we have a new vendor patch to optimise authentication connections), but as it stands, the Pawsey Data Portal service is presently available again for normal use.

Update

We are continuing to work on this issue with our software vendor - as the supplied software fix has been re-tested under workload and the Data Portal appears to still be having issues so it is not available again for normal use.

Update

The supplied fix has been tested and it appears so far to be operating properly. We will work to re-enable authentication and we will announce soon when Mediaflux and the Pawsey Data Portal is available again for normal use.

Identified

The vendor believes they have identified the issue and are currently writing a fix for us, hopefully to be provided by Monday. We will test this fix first against our test authentication service before pointing mediaflux server for the data portal back towards production authentication services, just to ensure the fix is successful.
