Just an update that this is happening in around 20 minutes. ToolsDB connections will
fail during that time.

ToolsDB will be undergoing maintenance and updates, Tuesday, November 27th at 1730 UTC to

Actual outage times should be fairly brief, but during this time the database will be
taken offline and the system rebooted. Due to the expected brief nature of the outage and
the fact that some tables are not replicated (see
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Toolforge/Database#ToolsDB_Backups…
<https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Toolforge/Database#ToolsDB_Backups_and_Replication>),
we are not planning on failing over to the replica at this time.
