On Monday evening, 2020-08-17, we will upgrade the firmware on our data center switches in zone RMA1 (Rümlang). During this maintenance work you may experience short periods of packet loss (up to one minute) or higher RTTs for connections from and towards the Internet and between virtual servers (even when using the private network interface), as well as short delays for I/O operations to SSD/Bulk volumes and our Object Storage in that specific zone.

Date / Time
Monday, 2020-08-17, 22:00 to Tuesday, 2020-08-18, 01:00 (CEST)

Expected Impact
Short periods of packet loss (up to one minute) or higher RTTs for connections towards the Internet and between virtual servers, as well as short I/O delays.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.

On Tuesday, 2020-08-18, between 13:30 and 14:30 CEST, we will disable TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 on the cloud control panel and the API as well as the object storage in the RMA region. For more information, please refer to the announcement on our blog.

Date / Time
Tuesday, 2020-08-18, from 13:30 to 14:30 CEST

Expected Impact
We expect no interruptions during this period.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.

From Wednesday, 2020-08-19, 21:00 CEST, we will install a new release of our storage cluster software at our RMA (Rümlang) region. During this maintenance we expect short periods of slightly degraded performance of volumes (SSD and bulk storage) and our object storage. No further impact is expected. The storage cluster at our LPG region is not affected by this maintenance.

Date / Time
Wednesday, 2020-08-19, 21:00 CEST to Thursday, 2020-08-20, 03:00 CEST

Expected Impact
We expect short periods of slightly degraded SSD, bulk, and object storage performance at our RMA region during this maintenance.
