Yesterday a failure did hit powell.debian.org, the host that is primarily responsible for building the packages.debian.org website. Unfortunately, the issue seems to be a bit more difficult to solve and this results in sort of a static packages.debian.org website that doesn't receive any updates at the moment. The Debian System Administration Team (DSA) is working hard on getting the problem fixed as soon as possible, please do not pester them too much with queries about when this will happen, it probably will only delay bringing the service up to speed again. Thanks for understanding, and sorry for the inconvenience. Rhonda, for the packages.debian.org Team -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJRZVTDAAoJEDH85+fdB5RhCcoH/R3U571tI5OqDA88vVrnLBXy 2PYs59cn0DW2OiiYEeQH8xZgTZTcIET25kXgq1mpGq0I/n+IOLGAQlFKkpJAs8n3 kf5QcdR+hpPYuDlg4dMDT0GLo0Icjnp0jW+sTHaVLiemPBEMqLnb9hczIuTsd9PF DJSe3GG</pre> Gerfried Fuchs 2013-04-10T12:03:42 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.infrastructure.announce/114 <pre>Faulty switch has been replaced and ubcece (with the exception of stabile.debian.org, which serves as local mirror to the other ubcece machines) is back online.

The downtime is to be expected to take approx. one hour. Cheers, Martin </pre> Martin Zobel-Helas 2013-02-11T10:00:01 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.infrastructure.announce/101 <pre>Hi, we will deploy two UPS's and PDUs at our rack at man-da on February 22nd.  Since this will require re-racking some gear we expect a downtime of most, if not all, of our servers during that day starting at 1100Z. The new hardware has been generously donated by Eaton Power.  Thanks! A number of services, like www.debian.org and central DNS, are location redundant, so man-da going away will not make the service unavailable to users. Some infrastructure, such as lists.debian.org, wiki.debian.org or db.debian.org, is only available at this location and might, therefore, not work during the above timeframe.

Before we start losing data (we already lost one disk), DSA is moving  master's services to a new machine. The new machine is already setup,  but not all the data has been moved. DSA will do a final copy of the data (YES, we do copy your $HOME) on the 2013-FEB-17 starting at 10:00Z (UTC).

This maintenance is likely to include a network outage that will disrupt connectivity to Debian infrastructure hosted at UBC-ECE. To maximize the outage (kidding!), we (DSA) will follow the UBC IT outage on 2013-02-16 with one of our own on 2013-02-17 to perform a (critical - vendor advised) firmware upgrade of our central storage array at UBC-ECE (an HP MSA 2012i). This firmware upgrade will necessitate halting the majority of Debian hosts at UBC-ECE. A number of externally-facing services, such as www.debian.org, are location redundant and will continue to be available during these planned outages at UBC-ECE. Many of our internally-facing services, however, are not redundant and will NOT be available. A list of hosts/services at UBC-ECE can be found below [1].

The first power interruption will be a short one (a few minutes), as they're testing the residual-current devices (RCD). It will happen this late afternoon between 17:00 and 18:00 CET (GMT +0100, i.e. 16:00 and 17:00 UTC). The second power interruption will be a test of the isolation and take longer (15 minutes to several hours, depending on the result). It will happen on 20th of December 2012.
