As promised yesterday, we are officially scheduling farm downtime to replace the hardware on our core scheduling server as well as upgrade it to a newer OS. The work being done will require the entire farm to be offline during the duration of the upgrade. Jobs present on the farm at the beginning of the maintenance window will be suspended until the upgrade successfully completes.
What day: Saturday, April 1st (no fooling)
Start time: 6PM Pacific time (UTC -7)
Expected duration: 4 hours
While we do not believe the maintenance will take longer than 4 hours, that possibility exists. We will post the completion of the maintenance window via our social media outlets, so be sure to follow us on Facebook, Twitter, or Google+.
