DIVERSP / DataHaven Database interruption, 13 February 9pm

[01 February 2012]

Over the past few months we have experienced problems with the memory on the DIVERSP/ DataHaven database which underpins a number of web based services. As a result of this changes were made to the memory management of the database.  We have now identified a fix to the problem and plan to revert back to approved operating procedures.  This will mean a reboot of the database.  This will mean that the database will be unavailable for 10 minutes on:

• Monday 13 February at 21:00

Please note: the CMS editing function will take longer to recover as servers need assistance to reconnect to the DataHaven.
