Cab is in and mostly wired, just a few more switches to add and some network cables to swap. There shouldn’t be any more major downtime now since everything else is ‘permanently’ wired.

I'm very happy to announce that the new, high-speed lines will be operational from tomorrow (26/7). Over the coming weeks we will transfer services onto the new IPs. While I'm sure there will be disruption, the process from an end-user perspective will be seamless.

The bulk of the changes will be done outside UK business hours and I will be working to ensure disruption is kept to an absolute minimum.

Planned Maintenance 21/10

On Friday 21st I will be upgrading the last of the servers to full SSDs. I will be taking advantage of the downtime to reinstall Proxmox and reconfigure the backup systems, so that each node has a dedicated backup server. There will be minor disruption as key servers like Email, WWW and DNS migrate to a temporary system, then back to their respective nodes.

Server and network status can be checked at any time on our status page (https://status.blue-canoe.net).
