 +====== Service Disruptions ======
  
 +As part of being an ACM/LUG Systems Administrator,​ you are tasked with notifying the appropriate parties when an incident arises. ​ This may include (but not limited to) contacting the faculty advisor, contacting officers in multiple organizations,​ contacting the CS Support contact, or even contacting the fire department.
 +
 +System Administrators are responsible for the upkeep of the ACM/LUG servers and services. ​ In 2015-2016, new construction on the CS lounge completed and the ACM/LUG office was moved into the former IT Lab(SELE 2264). ​ All student servers are now located in the student space server room located in SELE 2266.
 +
 +A system administrator is advised to check on the server room **at least once every two days** to ensure the smooth running of servers. ​ Automated alert services are still in the process of being setup. ​ A short visual inspection of the server room is generally all that is needed.
 +
 +In the event that you see anything awry, you **MUST** alert the appropriate authorities and stakeholders.
