SSL certificate update 1

20 September 2016 10:19:12 +0000

The SSL certificate was upgraded on server NC027 at 10:09 UTC. This covers email services. We’ll be replacing the expired certificates on other server and control panels shortly too.

You may need to restart email programs and web browsers for the new certificate to be recognised. Again, we apologise for the inconvenience.

Our apologies for the delay.

NC027: Upgrade update

24 July 2016 00:08:15 +0000

We’re going to continue holding back the upgrade of NC027 for another two hours and re-evaluate at that time. Our apologies for the delays.

NC027: Server upgrade postponed

23 July 2016 23:17:27 +0000

Due to the possibility of significant delays, we are postponing the upgrade of NC027 scheduled for this time for another hour. We’ll reassess the situation at that time and re-evaluate. Updates will be posted here.

Thanks for your patience.

NC031 upgrade complete

16 July 2016 23:28:00 +0000

The upgrade of server NC031 was completed at 23:16 UTC, and the server is up and running. Thanks for your patience.

In light of this much faster upgrade we’re going to suggest that the bigger upgrade of server NC027 next weekend shouldn’t take nearly as long as is currently scheduled.

NC031 upgrade in progress

16 July 2016 23:10:01 +0000

The upgrade of NC031 started at 23:06 UTC and is currently in progress.

NC027 and NC031: Server upgrades

13 July 2016 22:02:41 +0000

The above two servers — the primary mail (NC027) and web (NC031) servers — will undergo hardware upgrades during our regular weekend maintenance windows this weekend and next:

* 16 July, 23:00 UTC: NC031, duration approximately 2 hours
* 23 July, 23:00 UTC: NC027, duration approximately 7 hours

Please click on the above dates and times to use the World Time Server website to convert to your local time zone. The above durations are only estimates. Down time will be slightly less, as some of the work can be done while the servers are still up, and there’s always the possibility that the work will finish more quickly. However, please plan for the servers to be down for the entire durations stated above.

Incoming email during the maintenance of server NC027 on the weekend of 23 July will be held on the sending servers and delivered once the server is back online. No email will be lost.

During the maintenance this status website will be available, and we will post updates when the maintenance starts and ends, as well as during if necessary.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us to let us know. Thanks for your patience and understanding as we work to improve our service to you.

NC020: Emergency maintenance complete

28 June 2016 12:36:56 +0000

Previous similar work on another server took well over an hour to complete, so to be on the safe side we estimated two hours of downtime for server NC020. However, this time it took only 33 minutes and the server was only down for a few minutes during that time.

Sometimes things go inexplicably well, so we’ll take the good news!
