The Daily Bulletin

Buffalo State College will upgrade its data warehouse from the close of business Friday, February 14, through Monday, February 17. The data warehouse is also known as “ODS”; its reporting tool, Argos, is used to create reports from ODS. Other systems like Banner and Degree Works also interact with ODS.

During this upgrade, ODS will operate with data captured before the close of business on February 14. Data in ODS will not be updated during this period. Any report run from February 14 through 17 will be populated with data last updated on February 14.

ODS will be completely unavailable for a short window. If you find ODS to be nonoperational at any time during this window, please log off and log back on later; ODS will likely be running again. Please remember, though, that data will not be updated past February 14.

During this upgrade, systems interacting with ODS could be slow, freeze, or behave in unusual ways. Banner might also be affected during this period. If you encounter problems, please log out and log back in later.
