Good Saturday to you all! This notice is to inform you of some events which I am anticipating for next week. Although the event itself wil be of no interest to you, I will tell you about it because of the knock-on effect that it wil have upon the group.
Starting on Monday morning, my bathroom is in line for a total make-over. This wil involve a degree of electrical work, as new cabling needs to be put in place from the isolator switch which I had fitted to my fuse-box, up the kitchen wall, through the ceiling of my studio then under the floorboards and into the bathroom. This is necessary because I’m having an electric shower and extractor fan fitted which is something that my bathroom has never known until now. The reason for this explanation is probably quite obvious. It will require that the power supply to the house be disconnected for extended periods of the week during the hours of 08:30 and 16:30. Therefore, since my UPS batterie are not designed to function for such an extended period of time under load, it will be necessary for me to shut down the entire server array until the day’s work is completed. It is possible, in fact, very probable, therefore, that disruptions will occur during the aforementioned hours. Unfortunately, thise outages are unavoidable. The work has to be done and, therefore, the power needs to be switched off. I shall endeavour to keep the outages as brief as possible but need you to be aware just in case mail starts bouncing. Between now and Monday I am going to be taking steps to try to ensure that any mail which is destined for our servers during the times when they are not available will be routed to a reliable and secure backup server located off-site. So I hope we can avoid problems. I will advise the group when things are in place. ================================================= My compliments and kindest regards Gordon Smith: <[email protected]> Accessibility & Information Technology Support Specialist..
