Downtime possible tomorrow (Friday, Dec. 29) during the afternoon

I will be performing several upgrades to our software tomorrow afternoon that will likely require that the site be taken down for brief periods of time.

I do not know exactly how long or how often service will be interrupted, but I do not expect it to be too long.

Thanks for your patience!

Red Hat plans to ship the next version of its premium Linux product on February 28, debuting major virtualization technology but missing an earlier deadline by about two months.

..cut..

One major feature arriving in RHEL 5 is Xen, virtualization software that lets a single computer run multiple operating systems simultaneously. The technology's initial advantage is to let administrators load up a server more efficiently, but virtualization in the longer run also holds promise for reliability and flexibility because virtual machines can be moved from one computer to another while running.

4. Elad, they will probably be watching for DU to be down to hang Saddam

They fear the power of Elad and Skinner to subvert the spin cycle! ;)

I had the same thought! :tinfoilhat:

then again, I just bet $10 he would hang on Friday. How will I know if I win? :shrug: . Elad will just have re-schedule the whole thing, it just doesn't work for me. :P

11. Aw crap. I was really starting to enjoy this.

Spending all day, off-n-on, strolling around the forums, kids sleeping in, all of us reverting to animal mode, no school, no errands, no carpool, no obligations, no schedules, and no responsibilities for anybody for at least a few more days... and DU sprees as long as I like while Spousal-Unit takes his playtime on some cigar forum.

Guess I'll have to go get a life for awhile or take the dog for a long walk (or maybe go clean out my email - YIKES!!! Not looking forward to THAT, at ALL).

Guess you gotta do what you gotta DU...

12. Thanks for the warning, Elad.

Otherwise I would have suspected that the powers-that-be at work had finally firewalled the site!
