Subject: [boost] Reboot all the CREST server machines to apply the updated openssl lib

Dear All,

I am advised to reboot all our CREST servers to fully apply the updated OpeeSSL library. The new OpenSSL library was patched to RHEL 6 (RedHat Enterprise Linux 6) packages yesterday and they were installed on all the CREST server machines at around 10am Apr 8, 2014. (Note: all the CREST server machines are setup with RHEL6).

The OpenSSL bug is serious and we needed to take immediate actions.

Even though our server seem to be safe with the new OpenSSL library now, I would like to make sure that there is no any leaking spots in our server machines by refreshing all the systems with the new OpenSSL library.

I would like to setup a schedule to reboot all the CREST server machines at 9am tomorrow (Apr 10, 2014).

Date: April 10, 2014
Time:
6:00am-7:00am Pacific US time
7:00am-8:00am Mountain US time
8:00am-9:00am Central US time
9:00am-10:00am Eastern US time
1:00pm-2:00pm GMT

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about rebooting our servers.
  
Regards,
