[AT RISK] Kalimdor downtime THIS SUNDAY from 1700hrs

Hello all,

Kalimdor.tastycake.net will be taken out of service for on

Sunday 22nd July (THIS SUNDAY) from 1700hrs

... in order to carry out preventative maintenance. Whilst these works are in progress, NONE of the tastycake.net services will be available. I anticipate that the works will only take approximately 30 minutes to complete.

Status updates will be posted to our new offsite status page, http://tastycake-status.blogspot.com.

The works to be carried out are as follows:
  • Replacement of Kalimdor's internal power-supply unit (PSU) with a new, more-efficient equivalent that conforms to the 80PLUS specification.
  • A filesystem check on /home in order to clear a stuck inode.
I apologise for the short notice; if these planned works present a problem, or if you have any other comments, concerns or queries, please contact us the administrators via all-heroes([a])tastycake.net.

Cheers,
David
