Possible Network Outage Thursday Morning

Don't be alarmed. 

The Network Operations Center which houses the server for the VFW WebCOM and VFW WebMail networks is doing some upgrading on Thursday morning.

As a result, you may experience a short period of time where the networks may be inaccessible.  They are estimating a period of about 5 minutes sometime between 7AM and Noon EST. 

Basically, they are unplugging the server, moving it to a new rack about 20 feet away and plugging it back in.  So if all goes as planned, the period of outage should be minimal. 

The regular overnight backups and redundant backups will be made so if anything should go wrong, we shouldn't lose any or very little data.

Just wanted to give a heads up to avoid panic.

Thanks for the warning. I will not post any changes until the afternoon.

I hope that it isn't the great crash of 2007 take II.
