Software change switches Saturday 21st January 2023 16:50:48


We will be installing a larger number of our switches with a different software in the next few hours. This will lead to expected outages of about 30 minutes.

Done

We were able to update almost all of our switches yesterday. There are 5 of about 200 devices left on the Vaihingen campus. We will update them manually today after the announcement.

We hope that the now installed software runs more stable and does not cause any failures as it was the case last week.

If individual switches cause problems during the update, we will not inform you separately. During the updates, we are directly involved with several teams in getting the defective devices back online as quickly as possible.

We are currently in the middle of the roll-out process. We are trying to inform the affected members by e-mail in advance. More units with the planned software are being installed every few minutes. We hope to complete the process in a few hours.
