eRA Alert: All eRA Systems - Including eRA Commons and eSubmission - to be
Gradually Shut Down at 11 a.m. ET to Diagnose Ongoing Performance Issues

March 30, 2009 

 

Last week's ongoing performance issues with eRA applications continue this
morning. In order to get to the root of the issues that are plaguing the
system, eRA plans to gradually bring down all eRA applications - including
eRA Commons and the eSubmission system - beginning at 11 a.m. Eastern Time.


 

We expect the systems will be down for at least three hours. We will notify
you when the systems are brought up again.

 

Since it would help us immensely if we troubleshoot the issues while users
are on the system, we encourage you to continue working. But save your work
frequently and be mindful of the fact that the system may go down any time
after 11 a.m.

 

We recognize that the degraded performance and service interruptions are
interrupting your business flow. Please be aware that eRA is doing its
utmost to get performance levels back to its normal efficiency. We truly
appreciate your patience during this time.
