We’ll have a small window of downtime for about one hour on Saturday night in order to push some bug fixes and perform server maintenance to Lighthouse. Downtime will start on Saturday at 8 p.m. PST (2000 -7 GMT) while our host, Engine Yard, performs a Cluster Switch Upgrade. During that time we’ll be updating Lighthouse.
We’re hoping that Saturday night/Sunday morning is good time when most sane people will be out doing things that don’t involve ticket tracking, but we would like to apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause. The details for the updates are as follows:
Cluster Switch Upgrade
Engine Yard is upgrading the switches that provide connectivity for our slices starting at 8 p.m. PDT (2000 -7 GMT)
Database Maintenance
Deployments usually only take a few minutes, but we’ll be taking this opportunity to tweak some of the core database indexes. The site will already be offline while the new switches are being setup.
DNS Changes
Much our surprise, our DNS nameservers were still at our old Engine Yard cluster. EY00 happened to be taken down for some server maintenance while we were pushing out the new Access & Permissions updates this week. This is the last bit of our service that relies on the old slices. We’re all set up on the new nameservers, but we’ll be making the change live tomorrow night.

June 20, 2008 at 9:28 p.m. – this post was just updated to reflect that the downtime will begin at 8 p.m., not at the originally stated 9 p.m.

Random, non-maintenance related question… any update on XTT? Ever since hearing about it I’ve been excited to see it, me being a time-tracking junky that’s never been satisfied with really anything out there.
It’s been kicking ass for us personally. But everyone else we give out invites to quits using it within a week. That’s not a great sign :)
Well, send me an invite and let’s see how long I last :) I’m pretty sure I’d go more than just a week and lately I’ve been on the time tracking hunt… again.
