Security reboots coming, likely on 10/11/12 October

Hello, Unfortunately some more serious security issues have been uncovered in Xen which affect versions and configurations which we have deployed. These were pre-disclosed yesterday, with full public disclosure coming two weeks later on Thursday 12 October as normal. So, we're going to have to patch everything and reboot before then. This will very likely be taking place over three nights starting in the early hours (BST) of Tuesday 10 October, but we will be sending out an individual email to every customer confirming when they will be affected. For those unaware of what this entails, it means that at some point within an hour-long maintenance window we will shut your VPS down cleanly as the machine it's on is shut down, and then boot it again once the machine has booted up. It typically takes 5-10 minutes. As a reminder, you are able to opt for your VPS to be suspended to and restored from SSD if you don't like losing program state: https://tools.bitfolk.com/wiki/Suspend_and_restore Cheers, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
