Windows M: and S: drives SMB maintenance
Completed - The f/w upgrade of the 2nd node has now been abandoned. The node has been rebooted and the SMB and NFS services restarted there. We will reschedule the upgrade at a later date to be advised.
Apr 9, 16:58 NZST
Update - We have had some issues with the second protocol node, which has caused the maint window to be extended. However the SMB and NFS services are running ok on the first node and should remain available throughout. This is just an informational update.

These will be done sequentially so the SMB and NFS services will be available. But any SMB or NFS mounts on each server will be disrupted and will need re-mounting at the time.
