We will be performing core operating system upgrades across all our servers to improve security and stability next week. We don’t anticipate any service interruption for longer than a few minutes, but to minimise risk we will be doing the work between 12am and 6am (GMT) on Wednesday 16th September.
Initial database backups will take at least an hour, during there won’t be any service interruption. Any time that your website will be unavailable due to ip address transition between servers (at most a few minutes) will be covered by an “upgrade in progress” message.
There will be no change to the operation of your system or websites since this is a server level update, and should not be confused with the upcoming new features being added to the Pearl software.
If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us – info@pearlsoftware.co.uk
