Virginia DMV, Agencies Reopen After Computer Crash
posted 10:09 am Thu June 21, 2007 - Richmond, VA
The resulting data processing backlog affected a number of agencies, including the Virginia Employment Commission and the departments of Social Services, Taxation and Transportation, Williamson said.
The crash did not result in a loss of data and all state agencies were back in business, Williamson said Thursday. VITA would continue to monitor the system closely and would install backup hardware during scheduled maintenance this weekend, she said.
DMV's customer service centers conduct about 20,000 transactions a day. The computer failure also prevented customers from completing DMV transactions over the Internet and touch-tone telephone systems.
