We are writing to inform you of our intention to conduct this maintenance.

Who will be completing the work? All tasks will be carried out by our iomart Infrastructure engineer.

Will I experience downtime? During the maintenance window, there is a risk that customers may experience some disruption to their network traffic, however this may not be visible as the traffic should continue to pass through the second device in the redundant pair.
