GOC Services Update - Tuesday, February 25 at 14:00 UTC

The GOC will upgrade the following services beginning Tuesday, February 25, 2014 at 14:00 UTC. The GOC reserves 8 hours in the unlikely event that unexpected problems are encountered. We encourage users to test affected services before the production release.


OSG Planet (https://blogs.opensciencegrid.org)
* Adding OSG Homepage newsletters to the aggregator.


OSG Display
* Updating to osg-display-data-1.0.9-1 so that it calculates 12 month numbers similar to gratiaweb (SOFTWARE-1400)


All Services
* There will be OS updates; reboots will be required. Downtime should be minimal, and the usual high-availability mechanisms will be used to reduce service downtime even further and eliminate it in most cases. However, services may experience degraded performance, and the services without HA mechanisms (OIM and Twiki) will still experience brief downtimes.
