Flechmen 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2012 CF's server is going to be undergoing some updates and whatnot. So, things need to go down for maybe up to 2 hours, most likely it'll be 15-30 minutes. The downtime will start at 8 AM Sunday GMT. That's 12AM PST. Just to give you an idea.. 84 packages can be updated. 66 updates are security updates. *** System restart required *** flechmen@ds3776:~$ uptime 04:25:23 up 136 days, 20:41, 1 user, load average: 0.37, 0.21, 0.19 So, things will be rebooted on Sunday at 8 AM. It shouldn't take more than 30 minutes unless I mess something up. And there is no possibility of data loss. This will take down: All websites on the server: this includes CF, scaleskin.co.uk, dects.ca, direlda.net, foxnet.in, and a few others. All services: This includes email, IRC, and... I don't remember what else. So.. if late at night is your favorite time to browse CF.. well.. sorry.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Wolfin Report post Posted March 9, 2012 (IRC will remain up on the WagzTail node; if your client doesn't automatically "round-robin" to WagzTail during the downtime you can force it to connect to irc://usa.wagztail.com ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
