[cross-project-issues-dev] Build.eclipse.org to be upgraded Saturday, Ju

[Denis Roy <denis.roy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Greetings,

As per bug 302613, I'll be upgrading the OS on build.eclipse.org 
Saturday, July 31 2010.  The server needs to be taken offline during the 
upgrade, so this means Hudson will be unavailable.

The upgrade will take a few hours to complete, and some things will 
likely be broken as a result.  We will resolve issues as they come in.

Since no backups are made of the working area (/shared a.k.a. 
/opt/public), I will create a snapshot of it before doing the upgrade.  
It currently is 434G (!!) -- anything you do to reduce that will reduce 
the time it takes to create the snapshot (thus returning the build 
server to production that much faster).

Thanks for your help!

Denis
