1 -=== **Collaboratory 2 release (2021-09-14)** ===
1 +=== **Drive issue** ===
2 2  
3 -**Collaboratory.Wiki**
3 +Users have reported issues trying to access the drive. This is something we are aware of and trying to fix as soon as possible. This issue seems to be an Openshift problem.
4 4  
5 -* Collabs will now have a "Contact Administrator" button that allows users to send a message to the administrators of a collab. The administrators will receive the message along with the details of the user that has sent the message.
5 +Until this is resolved, users will have issues accessing any functionality that requires Drive access. This mainly concerns the Lab and to a less extant, any service that requires access to the drive.
6 6  
7 -=== **Collaboratory 2 release (2021-09-03)(Released)** ===
7 +**Potential fix: **We believe we have identified the issue and will be bringing the Lab service down for up to an hour at 10pm CEST on April 28th as we attempt to deploy this fix. All current Notebooks will be killed during this downtime. - Unfortunately this fix has not worked and we are looking at other solutions at the moment.
8 8  
9 -**Collaboratory.Wiki**
9 +**Potential fix 2: **We have another small release that should fix the issue at 13:30 CEST Today. All currently running notebooks will be killed during this downtime.

12 -* The User API will now also return the "mitreid-sub", a unique identifier carried over from Collaboratory 1 that will be maintained in Collaboratory 2.
13 -* The GET Users endpoint is now only available for authenticated users.
11 +This issue has been resolved, please let support know if you encounter any issues with the lab. Thank you for your understanding.
