Blogware will be performing maintenance to upgrade the hardware on the database servers for Blogware. During this time, all blogs and the Publisher's Control Panel will be unavailable.

Date: 11/23/2005
Start Time: 12:00 AM ET
Duration: 4 Hours

On 11/19/2005 beginning at 10:00 PM ET, our data center provider will be doing scheduled maintenance on their systems. This will cause short, intermittent outages for some services during this time.

Date: November 19, 2005
Time: 10:00 ET – 02:00 ET on 11/19
Duration: 4 hours
Impact: During these brief connectivity outages, the following functionality will not be available:

• Ordering, renewal, transfer, and management of domain names
• Blogzerk (Blogware) Blogs and Publisher’s Control Panel

NOTE: Email Defense message processing and the Email Defense Portal will remain online.

Blogware has scheduled a maintenance window on 11/12/2005 to conduct a database upgrade on the Blogware Environment.
The blogs and the management interfaces will be offline during the maintenance.

Date:  11/12/2005
Start Time:  10:00 PM ET
Duration:  10 Hours

Impact: The Publishers' Control and blogs will not be accessible. Each interface will be made live as soon as
it is available to minimize impact on end users.

More Information: The backend database server software that powers Blogware will be upgraded to the latest version. This upgrade is necessary to fix the few remaining performance issues and allow for future optimizations. Unfortunately, to do this requires shutting down all database services which results in the longer than usual downtime.
