Our webhost for the www.emeraldcitychronicles.com and www.emeraldchronicles.com websites will be installing new hardware on the core switches that are used by the webserver that hosts our account. In order for these upgrades to be performed the server will be disconnected from the Internet for approximately one hour.
Due to the magnitude of the upgrades which will occur across all core switches, altering the underlying technology that our data center infrastructure is built upon, their normal redundant mechanisms can not be used. The redundant systems have to be concurrently upgraded along with the live systems.
Afterwards, we will benefit from increased router capacity across their whole network and infrastructure.
The upgrade can take up to an hour and will occur on October 22, 2008, sometime between 12 am and 6 am Central Time.
During this upgrade, the websites may not be online for approximately one hour. Writing and editing of files in our web space will also not be possible.
