System Updates - OnCore/eReg

Occasional OnCore and eReg system updates are necessary to ensure optimum system functionality and maintain high standards of security for clinical trial data. To minimize disruption to OnCore and eReg users, updates will occur outside of normal business hours (overnight or on weekends). Additionally, OnCore Support provides the maintenance schedule outlined here so that clinical trial teams can plan their work accordingly.

Application server operating system updates are applied using automation. During these periods once a month, there will be a single, brief restart of the application server running your product(s) for 5 minutes between the hours of 12am and 4am Central Time each month on the following schedule:
