AVA S2/S3 Hardware Migration Nov 4-6

Event Date: Friday, November 4, 2016 at 11:00 PM EDT until Sunday, November 6, 2016 at 11:00 PM EST
Event Location: Ashburn, Virginia, USA
All instances hosted in AVA S2 and S3 subnets will be affected by this maintenance

We will migrate all hosted accounts to our new hardware at ServerCentral’s new cabinets, to avoid extended downtime during ServerCentral’s own hardware/cabinets migration later this month.

There will be no changes to your IP addresses, since we will use an almost-live migration mode with only brief downtime between shutting down every VM on the old hardware, final rsync and start on a new hardware.

Impact: We expect 15-30 minutes of downtime in total.

Thank you so much for your support while we work to make these improvements.
