=============================================
4.22am Update
Server 12 Maintenance is completed. The RAID card firmware has been updated and the server rebooted and back on line.
Server 14 Maintenance is still in progress and we apologies this has gone outside of the window allocated. The server forced a file system check (fsck) on reboot and this is currently at 35%. We will update this thread in 30 minutes.
=============================================
Our System Administrators will be performing some maintenance on two servers as outlined below. The maintenace is to correct some errors that are showing as detailed below:
Server 12:
We will be updating the firmware on the RAID card for Server 12 and rebooting the server to correct some errors we are seeing. All drives are healthy and we are not expecting any issues or prolonged downtime.
Server 14:
Server 14 is showing a failed drive and a degraded RAID array. We replaced the drive but the array is failing to rebuid. We need to take this server off line to work on the issue. We expect the downtime to be 2 hours maximum.
The maintenance window is 2am-4am UK time on Sunday 28 December 2014
