Git yer fix now, boys (or, MCP Site Downtime Notice)

The MCP site will be down for routine maintenance starting tomorrow, for about a day and half. The official message is:

The MCP/MCT web sites will be unavailable from March 27 at 9:00 AM PST until March 28 at 5:00 PM PST due to a planned maintenance outage. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience. If you need immediate assistance, your Regional Service Center will be able to help with most services during this time.

What this means to you is:

  • You won't be able to access your transcript, logo-builder, etc for a day and a half; any tools that are on the MCP site will be offline
  • The RSCs (https://www.microsoft.com/learning/support/worldsites.mspx) will be in read-only mode... that means they can help you look up any of your data but will not be able to implement any changes (i.e. update your address, re-order a kit, etc)
  • So, git yer fix before we shut 'er down.
