The Outage is a scheduled, major four-day disruption to most Broad IT services.

During the move, which will take place from 12:01 am* Thursday, October 17 to 11:59pm Sunday, October 20, almost all of Broad's IT services will be unavailable.
*Please note the change in start time
Broad employees and associates may access more details on our intranet.
External users may read more information on the Broad website.
Users of any Broad Institute hosted GenePattern server should expect:
