Just got this email from my server host.

As part of our continued commitment to providing the best possible service to our clients, it is required that we perform routine maintenance on our networking systems.

Generally routine maintenance requires seconds of downtime that is barely noticed by our clients or is not noticeable at all due to the redundancy built into the network. However, once in a while, more extensive maintenance work is required where more extensive downtime is required.

A number of pieces of networking hardware used to connect each server from our racks to our core network is now at end of life and to ensure that we continue to provide the uptime and reliability that you are used to, we will be replacing the networking hardware used to connect your server(s) to our core network.

These maintenance works will require us to physically unplug all hardware and servers from the network temporarily, while the old hardware is removed and the new hardware installed.

We will be undertaking this hardware replacement at the following date/time:

Start Date/Time: March 15 2022 11pm MST time (GMT-7)
End Date/Time: March 16 2022 5am MST time (GMT-7)

We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause. During this time, you will see your website, VPS, or server go offline. We anticipate that your website, VPS or server will be offline, twice, for up to 30 minutes at a time.
