We have scheduled an upgrade of our cloud hosting control panel server (https://vm.steadfast.net). This maintenance will upgrade the software to a new major version which fixes many bugs, adds new features and improves performance. Date: Sunday, October 16th, 2016 Customer Impact: Access to information about and control of VMs will be unavailable for part of this maintenance. Both customers and staff will be unable to provision, control, or view system details of VMs and related resources. Neither phase is expected to impact running VMs and support and billing systems will remain available for the entire window. Notable user-visible changes include:
In addition, this upgrade will enable us to perform hypervisor upgrades to a newer version of Xen, which will enable improved VM performance. These upgrades will be scheduled in the weeks following this maintenance. There are some new features added in this release which will not be enabled immediately upon upgrade. We will provide additional information to customers if and when we decide to enable any of these in the future. If you have any questions or need assistance during the upgrade, please visit our help desk or email us. | |
