Site Downtime

ZipTiesThatBind

Our hosting provider has some scheduled maintenance for this weekend and April 10th/11th with a downtime window of eight hours each day (presumably their entire working day). I’m terribly sorry about this, but there is nothing we can do other than let you know here so you don’t have to worry that the Van has gone kaput.

ZipTiesThatBind do you have the range of hours and time zone?

ZipTiesThatBind

Vela_Nanashi They did not specify a timezone, so no, unfortunately.

Thanks for the heads up!

Hi @ZipTiesThatBind was this also the cause for the recent outage? Starting at about 7 pm EST yesterday.

Was wondering about that too

pinkwarkitten14

yes, the outage yesterday was due to the planned maintenance. Just to be clear, the dates are March 13/14 and April 10/11. 🙂

pinkwarkitten14 thank you for the clarification, I appreciate both yours and zips effort of keeping us informed.

Any chance we can get the upcoming times, preferably in GMT? We can do the math from there.

ZipTiesThatBind

LtBroccoli I would gladly provide the times if I was given any myself. They gave us a range of hours, but no timezone, so all I can tell you is that the given window is eight hours each day of the planned maintenance.

LtBroccoli

ZipTiesThatBind Thanks. Most of the time if they don’t give a time zone, it’s either local time or GMT for cloud services. NGL, got kinda worried back earlier when it was down. I JUST started to unpack.

ZipTiesThatBind

LtBroccoli Yeah, sorry about that. I didn’t mention it because the way they worded the email notice they gave us, it sounded like we might get some brief downtime within that window, not have total downtime for eight solid hours.

ZipTiesThatBind Gotta love networking people.
