We will be restarting the S5 server a couple of times here shortly [expected downtime is 1~2 minutes each restart] as a part of our investigation into what we believe to be a hardware issue. We need to move the S5 server off of the hardware it's on now and to another piece of hardware and due to CPU architecture differences doing so will necessitate a shut down and boot up.

We are going to do a server move of S5 this evening to new hardware.  We will be monitoring the server and if needed we will revert the move and place it back on it's current hardware.

The goal of the move is to start a process of upgrading to new hardware nodes that should be more efficient and more responsive overall.

Due to a hard lock in a virtual server we are needing to do a emergency reboot. We will be doing the reboot at 5PM EST
