Hi,
The mirror at Halmstad University is now (since this morning, UTC) officially in the mirror list and I have seen traffic all day.
Question: Is there any procedure to follow if I must schedule downtime for the server? (ie downtime for 5 minutes to update kernel *or* downtime for one day (or more).
Well, downtime for 5 minutes noone will notice - unless they are in the middle of a long download ,get kicked off and they arent in a position to resume ...
Downtime for a day or more will be picked up by our systems and the listing will automatically drop off our website etc.
In my experience when we are told about small outages - we dont look at the emails until after the outage has been and gone ....
