Upcoming Outages/Upgrades

(System outages/upgrades and tree closures that impact engineering.)

  • Tree closing window this Saturday 0900 - 1500 PST. bug 951731
    • During this time the tegras will be moved from the Mountain View office into a data center, and will be unavailable until Monday 0900 at the latest. bug 914480
    • Panda testing will be online when TCW ends. (Test servers they use are part of the move.)
