Mozilla Scheduled Downtime - 1/25/2007, 7pm - 10pm PST

We will have a scheduled downtime window this Thursday night from 7pm to 10pm PST. The following changes will take place:

* 7pm PST - Global load balancing tests. We will be running some tests on our global loadbalancing setup to ensure proper functionality. Intermittent downtime of www.mozilla.com/org is possible for the duration of the window, but not expected.
* 8pm PST - Wordpress upgrade. We will be upgrading blogs.mozilla.com to a new version of WordPress. Estimated downtime: 5 min

Please let me know if you have any reason why we should not proceed with the planned maintenance. As always, we aim to keep downtime to as little as possible, but unexpected complications can arise causing longer downtime periods than expected. All systems should be operational by the end of the maintenance window. Feel free to email infra@mozilla.org if you see issues past the planned downtime.

We will have a scheduled downtime window this coming Saturday from 10pm to 12pm PST. The following changes will take place:

* 10pm PST - Load balancer software upgrade. We will be updating the code on our primary load balancers to address specific known issues. There have been a issues with previous upgrades, and we have backed them out but we believe we have the solution and this should be the final upgrade attempt. There is no estimated downtime as they are in a fault tolerant configuration, but downtime is possible.
