Scheduled Maintenance
This page is being updated.
Upgrade of machines 2017
Machines to upgrade: 30
Reasons:
- Main reason is to avoid security holes and update libraries.
- Libraries not present in the distribution will be provided with a new mechanism implemented with success by Lunarc. It will be in a test state during 2017.
- OpenSuse 13.1 is out of support since November 2016; the software is already old.
Target distribution
- Ubuntu 16.04 will be supported until 2021 and is my preference. There will be no more
machine update until that time.
- OpenSuSE Leap can be installed upon request. Its release cycle and support is unclear, therefore I am not supporting it anymore.
Tentative Schedule
