Release 2023_006 is ready and will be rolled out during the specified timeframe.

See the Changelog for information about the specific changes and impact of the release.

Note: releases themselves do not cause downtimes. If a change within a release requires downtime then every VM that is affected will schedule a maintenance period according to your projects' preferences and notify you with specific details about the downtime.

Past Incidents
Mar 27, 2023
Completed - The scheduled maintenance has been completed.
Mar 27, 16:30 CEST
In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.
Mar 27, 08:30 CEST
Scheduled - Today we are catching up with the previously postponed maintenance to adjust power outlet positions in our backup data center.

This will require two short interruptions due to rebooting a non-redundant switch. Affected services are the usual secondary services: Gitlab, Hydra, Jenkins, and the offsite-monitoring which may cause false positive alerts.

We're sorry for the short notice – the scheduling unfortunately happened while our team was travelling last week and we didn't manage to update our status page immediately.

Resolved - We have replaced the key with the new one on all VMs that are currently online.
Mar 24, 14:58 CET
Investigating - GitHub announced that they had to replace their RSA SSH key for Git operations because their old private key was briefly exposed in public. Git via SSH operations may fail at the moment if the old public RSA key is saved in the user's known_hosts file.

We are currently checking all customer VMs for occurrences of the affected key in known_hosts files of human and service users, like /home/example/.ssh/known_hosts or /srv/s-serviceuser/.ssh/known_hosts, for example, and plan to replace the old key with the new key.

Please replace the affected key in other places you control, like developer machines and deployments. You can follow the instructions provided by github.com. See their post for details here: https://github.blog/2023-03-23-we-updated-our-rsa-ssh-host-key

Completed - We've finished switching the uplink successfully.
Mar 21, 08:40 CET
In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.
Mar 21, 08:00 CET
Scheduled - We are continuing our Backup / Lab DC migration. This time the uplink connection within our build will be connected to a new fibre pair, which is expected to cause a few short downtimes in the range of a at most a few minutes.

As usual the affected services (Gitlab, Jenkins, Hydra, offsite monitoring) only secondary and will not impact customer traffic.

Mar 15, 08:00 CET
Update - We need to postpone this maintenance for another week do to more colleagues being out sick.
Mar 7, 08:52 CET
Scheduled - In this maintenance we will add more network interfaces to our routers to ensure proper network isolation with a new video surveillance network. This should not cause any expected downtime but is a task with downtime risk, so we'd rather announce it.

As usual this potentially only affects secondary services (Gitlab, Jenkins, Hydra, offsite monitoring) and will not impact customer traffic.
