Service Notice
Subject: CADC/CANFAR authentication downtime — Saturday, Sept 13 (12:00–8:00 pm PT)
Essential network maintenance in Victoria will take place on Saturday, Sept 13, from 12:00–8:00 pm Pacific Time. During this window, any CADC/CANFAR service that requires authentication will be unavailable (e.g., logins to portals, token issuance, authenticated APIs/Python Client/CLI jobs). Please plan accordingly and avoid starting jobs that need credentials during the outage. Other service access may also be affected. Thank you for your patience.
