[Comtec Announce] [QUAR] [IP Voice Services] Maintenance window 24th January 2015

[Adrian Williams]

Please be advised of the following maintenance window scheduled on 24th January 2015 to IP Voice Services

Date: Saturday, 24th January 2015
Start time: 02:00 GMT
End time: 05:00 GMT

Purpose:

The Engineering Team will be performing works to migrate a portion of traffic from one Session Border Controller (SBC) cluster to another to offer increased capacity between 0200 on 24/01/2015 and 0500 on 24/01/2015.

Services affected:

IP Voice Services.

These works will ONLY affect registering SIP Gateways and SIP enabled PBX's using the uk.ic.sipconnect.hipcom.co.uk/sipconnect.hipcom.co.uk (85.119.63.4) proxy.

Impact:

Due to the nature of the works there will be a short period where affected devices, until they re-register on the new cluster, will be unable to make or receive calls. For standard configurations it is expected that this period will be no longer than 5 minutes.

The Engineering team will be working to ensure that the affect on service is as minimal as possible during this low traffic period.

The Engineering Team will be closely monitoring all systems and services, as well as the above, to ensure any disruption is as brief as possible if experienced.
