Hi folk,


sks.neel.ch will be down for maintenance (~1 hour).

VM is moving from one datastore to another (from hdd to ssd)

Hi :)

About these short maintenance emails, I've always wondered... no offense,
but what is the use of this information? If one of my many peer servers
does not respond, and it's not for many days or months, where is the
problem? It could be an unexpected downtime as well as a scheduled
maintenance - the other SKS servers won't have a problem with it, would
they? :)

I personally do not care about temporary maintenance notifications of SKS
servers. I'm not a professional administrator, but what are the others
doing? Monitoring all their peers 24/7 and receiving emergency e-mails when
one of the SKS peers goes down for an hour? What for?

Will the e-mail cause the server to be taken out of the pool for an hour?
That's the only reason I could think of, and if that's it, notifying the
pool admin would be sufficient?

Best regards

I'm not sure about others but I for one do appreciate them because at times i check my own meta page on the sks pool status page and if i see peers linked to me that are down and have not updated their status' in some time, i do consider removing them from my peer list unless they respond to my request for a status update that i send them directly.

but from my perspective it doesn't really pose a tech issue aside from a lot of error lines for recon update attempts in your sks logs i suppose.
