Dataset1001, the host which serves dumps and other datasets to the public, as well as providing access to various datasets directly on stats100x, will be unavailable tomorrow for an upgrade to jessie. While I don't expect to need nearly 3 hours for the upgrade, better safe than sorry. In the meantime all files will be accessible via ms1001.wikimedia.org via the web, and all dumps and page view files from our mirrors as well.
Thanks for your understanding.

Extending this downtime window because we ran into unexpected issues with PXE boot.

PXE boot from non-embedded nic failed spectacularly despite our best efforts. This means we'll have to schedule another window once we have someting new to try. I apologize for the extra inconvenience. All services are back exactly the way they were.
