Be advised that there has been a fire in Shaw Court in Calgary where IBM and www.albertarelm.com are housed. Until the extent of the damage is known no timeframe can be given as to when www.albertarelm.com will be back online. Further information will be posted here as it becomes available.

Yeah I saw that fire on twitter, not looking good for draw results to be on time. Lets hope it all gets fixed up asap

White Wolf · #4 07-11-2012, 03:28 PM

I hope they manage to get back online before midnight or else there may be a revolt and chaos in the streets based on a few of the threads on this forum. People are going to want their draw results on time or even early.

Maybe this was F&W's way of dealing with the priority caps. Okay, we lost all the data....everyone back to zero.....lol

I'm sure we would all be honest and let them know exactly how much priority we have if it comes down to it.

Everyone is starting at zero

I have to laugh that they call these EARLY results. Some day they might get it together.

You can only if you get those blank tags in the mail.

twytter · #19 07-12-2012, 01:07 PM

You would think with computter now,that u could use any of them anywhere for the draws,i am sure they could login in to a diferent computer for that

Okotokian · #20 07-12-2012, 01:22 PM

So the Goevernment of Alberta doesn't have any servers?????? They rent space from Shaw for all their highly confidential data... do I have that right? I'm not an IT guy so I'm sure I'm missing something. Just doesn't seem right.

IBM has the contract to provide licensing services to the hunters and anglers of the province. As a result, it is their responsibility to ensure the security and safety of the data.

twytter · #22 07-12-2012, 01:30 PM

Yea i think this is a bunch of u know what,its like some say,its all computer now,why cant they have it done the day after the application is done, press 1 button on the computter and it should be all done

Same here not an IT but seriously maybe most of it stored on somebodies basement. Would not be surprise if the SISA's records are stored there. Management call it cost cutting and an assurance that they signed that they wont divulge your info

Wonder where wikileaks mined their info

rogo · #24 07-12-2012, 02:00 PM

Shaw's servers would have a significantly higher security protocol than would anything the Gov't could come up with. Especially since Shaw hosts canadian medical records.
