[Labs-l] bots and bastion interruption tomorrow.

[Andrew Bogott]

Just about all labs instances are now migrated; all that's left are the 
bots and bastion instances. I'll be migrating the bastion instances 
tomorrow at 11:00 PDT (18:00 UTC).  All labs machines will be 
unreachable by ssh during this migration, but if all goes well the 
interruption should only last a few minutes.

Following that move I'll migrate the bots instances.  Because migration 
involves a reboot, any bots that aren't puppetized/crontabbed/otherwise 
self-starting will need to be restarted by hand.  I recommend that all 
bot owners check in tomorrow afternoon and verify that your bots are 
still running as expected.
