Ex Libris Status Page

Overview

The Ex Libris Status page (https://status.exlibrisgroup.com/) provides transparency about service availability and performance for SaaS (Software as a Service) Ex Libris products. Access to the page is available for everyone and users who want to manage personalized content, profile, and email notifications are welcome to log in with their support portal (https://support.proquest.com/) credentials.

Use the Ex Libris Status Page to:

  • View current status of subscribed instances
  • View historical data for subscribed services
  • Find out about future planned maintenance

Terminology

  • Service/Environment/Instance Name on Status Page: The names of the services presented on the system status are under the Asset information on the Support Center.
  • Outage: Unplanned outages such as those caused by hardware or network issues.
  • Planned Outage: Necessary outages caused by planned maintenance or upgrades.
  • Degradation: Indicates a problem affecting a service that does not result in a disruption of that service.

Registration and Login

The Ex Libris Status page is a public page; therefore, no registration is required to view the status of any services.

The Ex Libris Status page is integrated with the support portal and as a result, Ex Libris portal users do not need to register and can log in using their Ex Libris Support Portal credentials. For more information, refer to the following document.

We recommend using the support portal credentials since it enables Ex Libris to provide a personalized customer experience which includes the ability to synchronize your email and subscription preferences. Colleagues with support portal access can invite other users to register. For more information, see Welcome to the Support Portal.

Users that are unable to obtain Ex Libris support portal credentials can self-register and log in directly from the Ex Libris Status page. These users need to manually subscribe to services relevant to them.

User Profile

Registered users can view their preferences on the profile page.

To access the profile page, select your registered name at the top right of the page and select Profile.

  • Time zone: This presents the service notifications in the time zone of the user’s choice. Email notifications are still presented in the UTC time zone.
  • Remove email notifications from all subscribed services: Quick option to opt-out of any email notifications for all services subscribed.
  • Receive email notifications from all subscribed services: Quick option to enable notifications for all subscribed services.

Landing Page

Each tab represents a geographical region. By selecting a tab, users can see all services under that region. Users that are logged in have an additional tab called "My Services," which includes all services the user subscribed to. If the user logged in via the support portal credentials, the tab automatically applies the product email preferences from the Ex Libris Support to the services belonging to the institution.

Search Widget

The Search Widget enables you to find services by name, product, category, or DC (data center).

For example: Searching for "NA01" returns all the services with NA01 in the name.

  • If there was no outage: The "Service is operating normally" icon appears

  • If there was an outage during a specific day: The matching outage icon appears

  • If the outage was not resolved and continues to the next day: The outage appears on both days

Outage History

Users can view the history of outage notifications for each service. When the user selects a service, a pop-up with three tabs displays.

Subscriptions

Users logged in with Support Portal credentials automatically have their service subscription synchronized with the Support mailing lists they selected in the support center.

For example, if the user below chose to receive emails for Alma, Primo and CDI, the Ex Libris Status Page automatically subscribes them to the Alma, Primo and CDI instances used by their institution.
