This is a notice to inform you that the parent hardware node that provides service to our main server will be rebooted tonight, June 25, 2015, between 00:01 and 06:00 CDT (05:01 - 11:00GMT). There should be no more than 20 to 30 minutes of down time to complete this upgrade and reboot the hardware node. All best practice methods will be used to ensure a quick reboot after the kernel update to minimize downtime on the server. This maintenance window is required to reboot the hardware node into the most current kernel. This is being done primarily to patch a recent security flaw found within the current kernel. Updating to this new kernel will also bring performance and bug fixes to the parent hardware node and help provide increased stability to the server.
