DigitalOcean Droplet upgrade maintenance notices !

eva2000 · Jan 27, 2015

Anyone else get an email from DigitalOcean about upgrading and migrating your droplets to new servers and cloud version of DigitalOcean platform ?

Hey there,

We have some good news! We are upgrading your Droplet to the latest version of our cloud, so we can bring you the latest features on the DigitalOcean platform.

This message is to inform you on February 03, 2015 between 04:00 and 10:00 UTC, your Droplet's hypervisor will begin the migration process. During a period of approximately 6 hours all of the Droplets on the hypervisor where your Droplet resides will be migrated to a new host. We spread out the migrations to ensure that each runs in a timely manner and completes successfully.

When your Droplet is queued for migration it will be powered off and you can expect about 1 minute of downtime per GB of your Droplet's disk size. We understand that you may be running services that are mission critical, so of course you have the option to upgrade your Droplet on your own at a time that is more convenient.

You can read more about how to complete this upgrade on your own by following the link below:

Once the upgrade is complete, please check that all your services are running as expected. If you have any issues please check your configuration as specific services you are running may need to be restarted.

Please feel free to reply to this email if you have any questions, and we'll make sure this process is as simple as possible.

For your convenience, we're listing the affected Droplets below:

What Occurs During a Cloud Upgrade?
In basic terms, the upgrade process involves moving your droplet from one physical server to another server that is running the latest version of DigitalOcean's hypervisor software—what we refer to sometimes as the DigitalOcean "cloud". The upgrade process requires that your droplet is powered off until it is completed.

Upgrading to the latest version of our cloud enables your droplet to utilize the latest features of the datacenter where your droplet resides, as they become available. Example features include IPv6, Private Networking, and Metadata.
