Brief outage tonight...

beardie · Apr 20, 2016

Hey all,

I've applied a few updates to the server's underlying software. I need to reboot the system for some of those changes to take effect. So, there will be a brief outage at midnight PST tonight. I don't expect it to be offline for more than 5 minutes.

Cheers,
-Alex

Why not just at 4 when it usually goes down? Just curious.
Also, thanks for the heads up.

At 4 AM (EST, I assume is what you mean, since it's 1 AM PST) is when the database backups run. The site goes offline for about 10-15 minutes during that backup. I wanted to keep it clear of that process, so the reboot happened an hour before the backups.

Yeah, I was talking about EST. I figured it was something like that. Good work as always.
