   Cloud Host updates will be taking place from 5pm-8pm on IAD3 and IAD4 Infrastructure. Most VM’s will automatically live migrate to other hosts. Some infrastructure serves such as Plesk10, 15, 20 will also require reboots during this period. This will cause short outages on those platforms.
   These updates and reboots are necessary to mitigate several exploits in linux systems that have been revealed this week.
