Impending FG downtime, probably Wednesday

[yanpa]

Just a quick warning - the FG server is feeling unwell will and need to go to the server hospital for a hard disk transplant; that will probably happen at some point on Wednesday afternoon, so FG will be offline for a couple of hours. I'll post more details when I know more than I do now.

UPDATE: downtime is scheduled to begin around 18:00 on Wednesday, FG will probably be offline for an hour or two.

Geez I've seen some good ones but 3 1/2 years is no slouch, she probably needs the rest. Scratching my head to think what an "as new" hard drive is haha.

Yeah... 3.5 years without kernel upgrade is quite a feat...

I have been out of the game for a few years now but I believe some don't need reboot anymore. I'm guessing though this was a case of if ain't broke don't fix it.

I can't upgrade samba without a reboot these days...

Exactly... I've had far more broken servers to deal with in the last 3.5 years...

Server has returned from hospital and is back up and running
