    We are carrying out emergency maintenance on one of our UK hypervisor nodes, UK-4N-C6320-MN01, to apply urgent security and stability firmware updates (BIOS, management controller and network adapter firmware).

    This work addresses known critical security vulnerabilities and cannot be delayed to a normal maintenance window. We apologise for the short notice.

    What to expect:

    - Virtual servers hosted on this node will be shut down and restarted once during the window.

    - Expected downtime is around 15–20 minutes within the 1-hour maintenance window.

    - Services will start automatically once the node is back online. No action is needed from you.

    - Servers on other nodes are not affected.

    We will post an update here as soon as the work is complete. If you have any questions, please contact our support team.
