Tomorrow (Sunday, 4/12/2015) at around 3PM EST (GMT-5) we will be replacing our
primary switch in Tampa due to one of the fans failing and leaving us with just
a single fan at this time. We will be failing our network over to our backup
switch during the replacement so you should only see a few dropped packets on
our network as we failover to the backup switch and then back to the primary
switch. Here is the current plan of action:
- Install the replacement primary switch in the cabinet.
- Bring our backup switch online and ensure the secondary NICs are cabled
correctly to it.
- Power off the old primary switch so that all servers failover to the backup
switch.
- Cable up the new primary switch and power it back on (the servers will
failback to the primary switch once they see it).
- Power off the backup switch and remove the old primary switch.
During steps 3 and 4 is when you may see some network disruption which
should be minimal and transparent unless you are directly connected to your
service at that time (the connection may timeout or look like lag).
If
you have any questions regarding this maintenance please open a ticket with our
Support department and we'll be glad to discuss this in more detail. Thank
you.
