No incidents reported.
Maintenance on VM hosts
We are experiencing problems with the network interface configuration of the restarted VM host and are currently on-premise and in the process of fixing the issue.
Installation of redundant switch management modules in House N and L
In this timeframe management modules will be installed in the secondary slot of the switches in House L and N. This should not impact network availability or stability.
Maintenance on video storage infrastructure
Some video storage servers will be updated to a new version of their operating system in this time and a restart to apply the update is required, which will impact availability.
Maintenance on the matrix server
As part of our regular maintenance the matrix chat server will be restarted on Thursday, 2025-10-30. The service will be unavailable for some minutes.
