Microsoft said an alternative health check returned a subset of affected servers to service during its Microsoft 365 disruption, FingerLakes1.com reported. Its 4:01 p.m. Eastern update said the company was extending the change, while the incident remained unresolved.

Potentially affected services include Exchange Online, Teams, SharePoint Online and Microsoft Copilot 365. Microsoft was also preparing an automated process to detect and restart unresponsive servers and investigating configuration updates as possible contributors. The notice does not establish that every customer is affected.
