I like this better than Saturday evening / Sunday morning. That doesn't fall in our maintenance window. In my 25+ years experience, virtually all the shops I've been at have had their maintenance windows between Saturday evening / Sunday morning, during the day Sunday (if they were lucky!) or Sunday evening / Monday morning. There's no good time though. IBM really needs to get 24 x 7 access / fail over working for IBMLink.
