Kernel Updates Friday May 20th at 11PM Pacific Daylight Time (-0700 GMT).

We will be doing kernel updates on all systems Friday May 20th starting at 11pm Pacific Daylight Time (-0700 GMT).  I expect interruptions of individual services not to be more than about ten minutes and it should be completed by 12PM (midnight).

This will impact all of Eskimo North’s services including:

This kernel upgrade is a point release that fixes some bugs.  It does not change capabilities or interfaces so should have no impact except to prevent crashes and processes hanging.  We haven’t experienced either of these with the current kernel but others have.
