Brief scheduled maintenance for calculon server (completed)

At approximately 11:00 PM Pacific time tonight (October 18), the “calculon” Web server will be restarted. As a result, Web sites and e-mail service for customers using that server will be unavailable for approximately five minutes.

Other servers will not be affected. And no e-mail will be lost, of course; incoming mail will just be delayed for a few minutes.

This brief maintenance is necessary to replace what we suspect is faulty RAID disk hardware that caused two “lockups” on this server in the last couple of months. We apologize for the inconvenience this causes.

Update: The maintenance was completed with less than 5 minutes of “downtime”.
