Maintenance Announcement
We still got 4 nodes running LXD, that are yet not migrated.
The plan is for the next weekend to migrate them to Incus plus a distro upgrade with a new kernel.
This includes: Singapore, Tokyo Equinix, Oradea and Islamabad.
Expect up to 30 minutes downtime per Node, usually less.
Relocation Announcement
Our backend currently runs in AMS with Gigahost, Gigahost is gonna discontinue AMS on Wednesday morning.
Hence our backend gets physically moved to Norway, this should not take more than 24 hours.
During this time, the Panel including any operations will be unavailable.
However, containers on the nodes will be running as usual.
Backups are done, in case something goes wrong on the side of Gigahost, we are good.
I am gonna take the opportunity, to also containerize and compartmentalize our backend.
Which means the Panel might be unavailable for a short time today/tomorrow, during the migration.
Just a heads up.

I will start at about 14:00 CET next Sunday.
I am targeting to upgrade this week Mumbai and Sandefjord, same time.
Just one reboot will do, about 5 minutes downtime.
I set Sandefjord, Helsinki and Meppel for new deployments, to KVM only.
A Buildserver for KVM templates will happen soonTM, so we can hopefully also offer 128MB and 64MB KVM's.

Regarding the failed deployments today and the unavailability of the console / shell.
A internal cert expired, it has been renewed but this caused deployments to fail and the console / shell to be unavailable for a few hours today.

Kernel module loading for containers has been disabled on nodes where its possible.
The rest still have to be upgraded to 6.x until we can go and disable it.
As soon as news hits, these modules will be blacklisted asap anyway by me.
If you need a certain module loaded, you can send a DM.
Containers on Sandefjord have been enabled again (with custom packages).
Meppel will follow once upgraded to 6.x.
Livepatches for the Kernel are applied as usual, when published.

Done, its up again.

Erm, ok... so either wait for a while or do it again so it goes down?
If it stays up for more then 4 hours, see a doctor!
Done.
