Service disruption - 2018-12-07

Added 2018-12-07 16:58:19 +0000 UTC

SFMLab and Smutbase will suffer from reduced availability in the next 48 hours due to changes to the loadbalancing setup.

Summary of the changes:

- New web nodes will be configured

- DNS will change to a different loadbalancer (can take 24-48 hours to propagate to your provider)

- SSL Certificates will become active on the new loadbalancers. (since we use Let's encrypt in combination with a non-standard loadbalancing solution, this depends on DNS propagating as fast as possible)

Later this week, changes will be made to the database and file servers also, leading to another possibly lenghty downtime. Ofcourse, this maintenance will be announced here as well.

I apologize for the inconvenience.

Update: Server DNS switch completed and certificates have become active. Please report any issues with the new web nodes.
