Hi,
Rather disappointingly there's been another round of security
advisories for Xen, some of which affect the configuration in use at
BitFolk:
http://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/
So unfortunately that means another round of "patch and reboot
everything" for us.
We will send out direct emails informing you of a two hour window in
which the work affecting your VPS is going to take place, but that
won't be sent for a week or so as testing of the patches will be
necessary first.
I am going to try to get a checkbox added to the panel website so
that those of you who are brave enough to try it can indicate that
you'd prefer for your VPS to be suspended and restored rather than
shutdown and booted.
Cheers,
Andy
