FYI: 8 hour outage of the community forums registration db

Aug 5, 2004 10:00AM PDT

Hi Folks,

Just an FYI: This Sunday (08/08/04), operation will be performing some major maintenance to our registration database servers and it will be down for approximately 8 hours between hours of 6:00 AM to 2 PM PST. During this period you WILL have access to the forums, but you will be UNABLE to login to post messages and sign up for the community forums. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Thanks!

I have to apologize for the long 24 hour rather than the expected 8 hour forum outage. We had ran into a few snags when reploying the database and people were unable to login. I hopefull that this will not be an issue in the future.

Again I apologize for the inconvenience.
