Planning: Power Outage & Planned Lab Maintenance (Sep 24) #411

Description

@rbo

Hey everyone,

Quick heads-up regarding the power outage of Munich Office on Friday, September 25th: neither Daniel M. nor I will be in the office that day.

Here is the plan for the lab:

Thursday afternoon (Sep 24): I will shut down the lab completely and power everything off.
Tuesday & Wednesday (Sep 29–30): Since everything will already be off, I’d like to use this window to do the planned lab rebuild (swapping out the racks) once I'm back in the office.
Thursday (Oct 1): The lab will be fully booted back up and operational by Thursday at the latest.

Note: If anyone urgently needs access earlier, we could potentially bring parts of the lab back online sooner with a bit of extra effort—just reach out!

Does anyone see any issues with this schedule or have critical dependencies? Please let me know!
