Essential Server Maintenance

Just a heads up. The BB webhost needs to perform some essential server maintenance in a couple of weeks time. It is routine, but necessary.

 

I do not know exactly the downtime (a two hour window is indicated), but the actual down time should be far shorter than that (probably minutes).

 

Scheduled maintenance window is due to start:

 

2019-06-26 2:00:00 AM UTC

 

The above equates to

 

2019-06-25 5 PM California

 

2019-06-25 8 PM New York

 

2019-06-26 1 AM London

 

2019-06-26 2 AM Paris

 

As I said, it is a two hour window starting at the above time; the outage will start anytime from the stated time up to two hours later, and the actual outage probably will be for just 5 or 10 minutes. Sorry - I cannot be more exacting about it.

 

Thanks.

So grateful for this site.

 

It is a lifeline.

 

Thank you for letting us know earlier.

 

 

 

Thank you. 

Thanks 

I guess the maintenance is over now?

Yep. Though, it seems that the maintenance occurred later than anticipated (from the notification I received), but it seems to have otherwise gone without a hitch. I guess I'll take down our forum notice now.

When a certain very popular social media site went down recently, no one was notified and people went hysterical all over Europe.

 

Here everything goes nicely, like a Swiss watch
