We will be performing upgrades to hosts vps1, vps2, vps3, and vps4 Friday morning between midnight and 4:00AM.

To minimise disruption to customers, prior to beginning each host's upgrade all customers will be moved to another host.

The expected unavailability for an individual customer's VPS is a maximum of five minutes.

Our upgrade schedule is:

  1. Shut down all guests on vps4 - internal Mammoth services only
  2. Shutdown vps4, perform upgrade, restart vps4 and verify upgrade was successful.
  3. Move customer VPS one at a time from vps3 to vps4.
  4. Shutdown vps3, perform upgrade, restart vps3 and verify upgrade was successful.
  5. Move customer VPS one at a time from vps2 to vps3.
  6. Shutdown vps2, perform upgrade, restart vps2 and verify upgrade was successful.
  7. Move customer VPS one at a time from vps1 to vps2.
  8. Shutdown vps1, perform upgrade, restart vps1 and verify upgrade was successful.
  9. Move internal Mammoth services that were previously running on vps4, to vps1.

During this upgrade period, access to the Mammoth VPS website and mPanel may be interrupted.
