This maintenance is partially complete.

During the firmware upgrade an IO module on the chassis experienced a
hardware failure resulting in loss of connection to VMs on the blades.
This downtime was approximately 10 minutes.

Cisco has been contacted and a new part has been dispatched to prevent
future interruptions.
