<p>The main SUCS server, silver, will be moved to new hardware this weekend. It will also be upgraded to the latest stable version of Debian.<br />
During the upgrade on Saturday, SUCS services will be unavailable. This includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Desktop on Demand</li>
<li>Email</li>
<li>Database access</li>
<li>Hosted websites</li>
<li>Jabber/XMPP</li>
<li>Milliways</li>
</ul>
<p>
as well as all other SUCS services. Emails sent to SUCS accounts during this period will be held on Outpost and delivered when normal service is resumed.</p>
<p>There may also be some shorter periods of disruption after the upgrade has been completed while servers are physically moved in preparation for Freshers Week and the start of term.</p>
<p>Users are invited to join Outpost, our backup Milliways instance, during the upgrade. Information will also be made available via our <a href="https://www.facebook.com/SwanseaUniversityComputerSociety">Facebook</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/SucsExec">Twitter</a> accounts.
