Hi,
This is a notification of upcoming maintenance to our Xen host nodes, unfortunately due to recently discovered exploits we will have to perform updates to the host nodes in order to patch them. We take security very seriously and as such these updates will need to be done as a priority.
When are the updates happening?
We will begin Friday 18th December 2015 at 20:00 GMT
How long will it take?
We are aiming to have each machine completed with an hour.
Is there going to be any downtime?
Unfortunately yes, as we will need to update the Virtualisation System itself there will be downtime required due to a reboot of the node.
We will of course do our upmost to ensure these updates are completed as soon as possible with as little disruption to services as possible.
