Maintenance Completed - Issues? Post here.

Post by FishPants »

I need to run some updates in CentOS; one of which is a MySQL update -- meaning I'm going to have to take the system offline to apply the patches (and then possibly update schema and so on). The board will show up as totally dead (unless I have time to redirect to a temp page). Shouldn't take too long (probably an hour).

I will probably start this between 1300hrs and 1500hrs eastern. (Sorry can't be more specific, my day job gets in the way!).

EDIT: Ok my afternoon just got hosed by meetings.. Going to start a backup, update, reboot now (10am Eastern).

EDIT 2: Backup done. Gzipping and moving offsite before patching. Board will be offline in 15 mins.

EDIT 3: All done! Everything seems fine, but please report weirdness here.

LordMortis and Chaosraven. Do I need to be more specific or does that cover it?
