LON Hardware Migration Nov 4-6

Event Date: Friday, 4 November, 2016 at 23:00 GMT until Sunday, 6 November, 2016 at 23:00 GMT
Event Location: London, UK
All instances hosted in all London subnets will be affected by this maintenance

We will migrate all hosted accounts to our new hardware at EMS’s new cabinets, to avoid extended downtime during EMS’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.
