news 28 Posted December 4, 2008 There will be an outage starting at 2008-12-05 18:00 UTC, which will last approximately 12 hours. During this time systems may be unavailable. Though any service disruption should be small with the exception of a 1 to 2 hour total outage of almost all services towards the end of this window. To convert UTC to your local time, take a look at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto or run: date -d '2008-12-05 18:00 UTC' Affected Services: Buildsystem CVS / Source Control Database Fedora Hosted Fedora Talk Mail Mirror System Translation Services Websites Unaffected Services: DNS Torrent Fedora People Ticket Link: https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1027 Reason for Outage: We'll be doing a switch upgrade as well as a number of system updates and re-cabling. We'll also be removing old hardware to install some new. This outage window is very large instead of writing out many smaller outages I thought it best just to make one large window. The longest outage should last 1 to 2 hours. The shorter ones will likely not be noticeable to most users. We'll work hard to keep outages as short as possible. If all goes according to plan there the primary website (non wiki) and mirrors site will not go down as they have built in redundancy. Everything else needs access to various databases in our datacenter and their connectivity will be interrupted.
