Upcoming NERC system maintenance and upgrade will occur on Tuesday April 16, 2024 from 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

- We are writing to inform you that we are planning to perform maintenance on the NERC OpenStack deployment. This will take the majority of the maintenance period.

- We will also be upgrading our ColdFront deployment to support minimal Swift Object Storage during the decommission process.

NOTICES

- We plan to perform maintenance on the NERC OpenStack deployment during this time.

- NERC OpenStack’s Horizon dashboard and other OpenStack API services may be inaccessible at times during this process.

- The OpenStack maintenance should not affect any of your running VMs and used storage including volumes and object storage.

- We will post updates to the status page when the ColdFront portion of this maintenance has been completed.

- We are reserving the whole day, from 9am to 5pm. It can take more or less time, so we urge you to keep an eye on https://nerc.instatus.com/ to get the progress during this time.
