ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
CloudSigma would like to inform you that we are planning to do a scheduled maintenance of all of our hosts in MNL. This maintenance concerns improving separation of storage load from other processes as part of the program of storage improvements. This work will help to isolate the impact on the storage cluster in the case of network floods, packet loss and/or ddos attacks.

All support activities will be conducted under the direct supervision of CloudSigma’s devops staff.

IMPACT:
The actual maintenance is expected to take no longer than 1 hour per host. It will be done on two stages.

Stage 1
Live migration of the VMs. All virtual machines will be live migrated so no impact is expected during this stage.

Stage 2
Storage traffic separation from Vm traffic. During the actual separation of the traffic there might be packet loss for up to 10 seconds per host. The storage operations will be freezed for this period of time in order to avoid negative impacts on the storage cluster and data integrity.

While it is important for CloudSigma to perform maintenance such as this to ensure the quality of our services, we do everything possible to minimize any inconvenience to our customers. We appreciate your patience and welcome any feedback.
