Server Upgrades
SkipIRC will undergo routine maintenance in the near future. This will involve upgrading the IRC daemon (service) on each server and rebooting to pick up OS and kernel updates.

Expected impact should be minor.


 * For our two hub servers, there will be a brief netsplit before each hub goes down. Users are not expected to be disconnected. A global notice will be sent to all users in advance of the netsplits.
 * For our three user-facing servers (keter, euclid, and safe) these upgrades will unfortunately disrupt existing connections. A notice will be sent to all users on each server well before maintenance begins to give them time to reconnect to a different server.
 * As each server is scheduled for maintenance, it will be excluded from the redirects on irc.scpwiki.com. (This will reduce the likelihood of users being connected to a server that's about to go down.)
 * Finally, the server that hosts network services (NickServ, ChanServ, etc.) will be upgraded and rebooted on a separate schedule. This is not expected to be disruptive aside from services being briefly unavailable. Users should not have to re-identify after services come back up.

Okay, so what does this mean for me, a user?

 * There'll be a handful of netsplits.
 * You may get disconnected now and then, but hopefully not more than once or twice through the entire maintenance cycle. Every effort will be made to warn users beforehand.
 * If you receive a message informing you that the server you're on is going down for maintenance, you can either reconnect to irc.scpwiki.com or wait and let your client reconnect automatically.
 * More questions? Contact Kufat on IRC, Twitter, or via email.
