Hi,
Tonight (UTC) we will switch the database for s3, s4 and s6 from the current server (yarrow) to a new server (hyacinth). This will require making the current server read-only, dumping user databases, and importing them to the new server.
This maintenance is being done earlier than anticipated because of existing issues on yarrow, hence the short notice period.
Depending on the size of the user databases, the read-only period may last a few hours. However, both wiki and user databases will be readable as normal during the maintenance.
This issue is being tracked in JIRA as MNT-345.
