Planned maintenance

Our 2021 maintenance schedule is available.

Posted Wed 9 June 2021

Maintenance activity: Pre-C&C infrastructure resilience testing

18:00 – 21:00, Thursday 15 June

As part of our preparations for ABL/C&C 2021, we will be testing the resilience of some of our network components from 18:00 – 21:00 on Tuesday 15 June. During this time, the following services will be intermittently unavailable:

  • Web-link for institute updates
  • Application and Decision Tracker

Maintenance activity: Database and Systems security patching

18:00, Friday 18 June – 23:59, Sunday 20 June

There will be a full system/service outage whilst we apply security patches to databases and systems. Further details can be found on UCAS.com.

During this maintenance we will also be updating choices with an RBD date of 13/07/2021 to 06/07/2021 and choices having an RBD date of 14/09/2021 to 29/09/2021. Please note that this may result in a larger number of updated records being in your next import from us once services have been restored.

Manuals update

Following the deployment of changes for the 2022 cycle, the odbc-link and xml-link technical manuals have been updated. Updated manuals can be found on UCAS.com.

If you have an enquiry about any of the work listed above, please contact the Service Delivery Management (Technical) team.
