A software lockup combined with a PSU failure on manual reboot caused a temporary outage on our monitoring and some network operation systems over the last hour. This has been resolved and no users should have been affected. |

The UK migration to the Davros system has been completed. All services should now be restored and mail backlogs are clearing. Users experiencing problems other than slight mail delays should raise a support ticket. Support staff are available throughout the night to monitor the systems. |

We have experienced problems with our UK (Stavros) hosting platform today and some users may have experienced periods of inaccessibility. The fault has now been resolved and mail backlogs etc are now clearing. |

An issue has been identified with a connectivity provider for the StavMax platform and as such the upgrade process has been suspended pending rescheduling. More information will be available nearer the time. |

Between Friday 15th and Monday 18th of June 2007 we will be performing a major upgrade to our main UK (Stavros) hosting service. The upgrade will involve switching services to the newly commissioned StavMax platform which has been specifically developed to replace the existing platform the Stavros service is deployed on.
The new platform will allow for increased capacity and redundancy as well as future-proofing the service for at least five years.
Part of the upgrade will involve user data such as web content, email and databases being transferred between physical disk sets. As a result a certain period of “change freeze” and a minimum amount of service downtime will be required.
All Stavros services including access (FTP), mail and web will be suspended temporarily at approximately 17:00 BST on Friday 15th June to facilitate the data transfer.
Service should be restored between 20:00 and 23:00 BST on Friday 15th but all Stavros services will remain “at risk” during the assurance testing window which ends at 23:59 on Sunday 17th.
The Verrotech website and support facilities may also be affected during this period.

Work has been performed to mitigate the problems with mail on our UK (Stavros) systems. Engineers continue to work to identify and resolve the root cause. Customers who receive their mail directly through the UK (Stavros) system may experience some small delays in delivery. No mail has been or will be lost as a result of this issue, merely delayed. |

Some customers may be experiencing delays if their mail is spooled directly through our UK (Stavros) system. All other customers including direct MX delivery will be unaffected. Engineers are investigating and no mail has or will be lost merely delayed. |
