The backlog of domain status changes has cleared and domains are being processed normally. http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5646 Thu, 09 Oct 2008 00:07:00 +0100 http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5646 Since 7 October 2008 we have been experiencing a problem with our process which updates the status of domains (i.e. schedule domains for suspension, cancellation, etc.). We are investigating this and will keep you informed. This does not affect the lifting of suspensions on suspended domains, which will continue to be lifted within a few hours of payment being received. http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5638 Tue, 07 Oct 2008 09:58:00 +0100 http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5638 The planned systems outage this morning lasted longer than anticipated. Online Service is now fully functioning again. We apologise for any inconvenience caused. http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5631 Fri, 03 Oct 2008 10:32:00 +0100 http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5631 At 7.00am on Tuesday 7th October 2008 we will have a systems outage lasting for about 1 hour and 15 minutes when we will be deploying software upgrades. During this time Online Service and EPP will be unavailable. The Automaton will not process email requests, but they will be received and queued for processing when it restarts. All other Nominet systems will continue to work as normal during this period. http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5608 Sat, 20 Sep 2008 04:27:00 +0100 http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5608 The problem we were experiencing in the processing of DNS updates to the second level domains we manage (co.uk, org.uk, net.uk, plc.uk, me.uk, ltd.uk, sch.uk) has now been resolved. The backlog of DNS updates has been processed and all new DNS update requests are being processed in a timely manner.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5607 Fri, 19 Sep 2008 04:13:00 +0100 http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5607 We are experiencing a delay in the processing of DNS updates to the second level domains we manage (co.uk, org.uk, net.uk, plc.uk, me.uk, ltd.uk, sch.uk).

The last updates processed were at 11:27am on 19th September 2008. Our systems are currently working through the backlog and we are investigating the cause of the delay.

You may continue to submit new DNS updates, which will be added to the queue. However please avoid resubmitting DNS updates you have already sent as this will add to the backlog unnecessarily. http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5580 Thu, 04 Sep 2008 04:13:00 +0100 http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5580 At 7.15am on Tuesday 9th September 2008 we will have a systems outage lasting for about 45 minutes when we will be deploying software upgrades. During this time Online Service and EPP will be unavailable. The Automaton will not process email requests, but they will be received and queued for processing when it restarts. All other Nominet systems will continue to work as normal during this period. http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5538 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 09:11:00 +0100 http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5538 At 8.00am on Tuesday 12th August 2008 we will have a systems outage lasting for about 45 minutes when we will be deploying a software upgrade. During this time Online Service and EPP will be unavailable. The Automaton will not process email requests, but they will be received and queued for processing when it restarts. All other Nominet systems will continue to work as normal during this period. http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5499 Wed, 30 Jul 2008 04:45:00 +0100 http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5499 We periodically introduce new software releases as part of our rolling program of continuous service improvement. These releases almost always involve the modification of objects within our database. During yesterdays release an object in the registry database that DAC and WHOIS rely on underwent a change that rendered those services unavailable for approximately 12 minutes. We do test our software releases rigorously prior to deploying them, but there are many dependencies within the database. Unfortunately, this time we missed the fact that the changes made during the release would affect DAC and WHOIS. As a result of this outage we are introducing changes that will alert us to these dependencies during the development phase. We apologise for the inconvenience caused by the interruption to service yesterday. http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5477 Tue, 29 Jul 2008 09:52:00 +0100 http://www.nominet.org.uk/registrars/systems/serviceannouncements#5477 We apologise for an unplanned outage on the WHOIS between 0857 and 0909 today, Tuesday 29 July 2008. This occurred during a previously announced upgrade to our systems which provides new functionality, particularly for the DRS. We did test this new software release thoroughly before the upgrade, but did not expect any downtime on the WHOIS or DAC. We will investigate the cause of this outage and report our results when we find them.
