*What is happening?*

On Sunday, February 26th, 2023 from 6:00 AM to 9:00 AM Data Center
Operations will be performing a firmware upgrade on the Orono data center
UCS equipment (fabric interconnects, blade chassis, blade servers,
management platform), all of which provides the backing for VMware hosts at
that location.  The upgrade process is not expected to cause any disruption
in service due to the active/standby configuration of the equipment.

*Why is this work necessary?*

This firmware upgrade will address several security issues as well as
provide feature updates for the UCS platform hardware.

*What happens if this work is unsuccessful?*

If the upgrade process is unsuccessful the UCS platform hardware will
automatically revert to a backup version of firmware.

Please email [log in to unmask] or call 207-581-3550 if there are any questions
or concerns.
