Joomla Server: Emergency Reboot - Kernel Upgrade
Posted: Sat Jul 22, 2006 6:55 am
We will be rebooting the server hosting joomla.org is around 10 minutes from the time of this post in order to upgrade the kernel due to a critical security vulnerability. The kernel is the central nerve of the Linux Operating System.
I am sorry for the lack of advance notification about this reboot but it is important that we apply this update as soon as possible. The outage should only be around 5 - 10 minutes at most unless a File System Check (FSCK) needs to be run on boot up.
Thank you for your understanding
